The title of a
Newsweek article was "The Angry Evolutionist" (Which, if we are to believe Newsweek's website, was actually written by Dawkins himself, though I don't know if he had a say in the title).
The article you linked to is titled "The Not-So-Angry Evolutionist": which is just a play off the Newsweek article. It's a gimmick that's supposed to draw in an audience that's familiar with the Newsweek article.

In all honesty, I'm not sure the label "evolutionist" really offends me: I mean, take it as granted that I would prefer to be labeled a "scientist" or "entomologist," but there are worse things to be labeled than "evolutionist."
But then, evolution doesn't offend most of the people I spend my time around (and it doesn't often come up around those whom it does offend), so maybe my experience isn't the same as yours. I could see how it would be a more sensitive issue in different social circles.
