Mark R. Yeatts suggests:

Here are several phrases journalists have used so many times, they
clang against the ear like a hit song from that Swedish Super-group,
Abba:

Journalism is a “reflection of reality.”

Polls described as “a snapshot in time.“

Any use of “on a daily basis.”

Market drops attributed to “Wall Street jitters.”

“The schoolhouse door.”

“Women, blacks, and other minorities.”

“The children” are ubiquitous though we never hear about “the adults” or “the grownups.”
