ROFLMAO! I hadn’t seen that one, and I thought I had kept up with everything on this case.

"It conformed too well to too many preconceived notions biases of too many in the press: white over black, rich over poor, athletes over non-athletes, men over women, educated over non-educated. Wow. That's a package of sins that really fit the preconceptions biases of a lot of us [liberals]."

The lessons of the media's rush to judgment and their affair with a sensational, simplistic storyline rank among journalism's most basic tenets: Be fair; stick to the facts; question authorities; don't assume; pay attention to alternative explanations.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Riiiiiiight.


Liberal journalists don't practice any of that today.

They are paid propaganda hounds with an agenda. The words "integrity" and "professionalism" are what they expect everyone else to adhere to - not them.

Thank God the boys had an alternative media. This is one you can sleep well at night over, abb. Let’s try to catch as many others as we can. I will never give up watching. We just need to make sure they can’t shut this media down.

"Thank God the boys had an alternative media."

Isn't that the truth. It took me months to convince my mom that these boys did not rape that girl. She still thinks if its on "that damn internet of yours", then it is just wishful thanking and wrong. She's a work in progress.

Scary to think what would happen to these boys without it.

Many people should be in jail over this. Many people should be sued. Nothing like that will happen, since the authorities have waited until it’s all over, and a mind-numbed public has forgotten, to just let it all disappear.
There will be no jail for the criminals nifong and the female stripper. This is an injustice.

During the dismissal of the charges against the student athletes, the “new” prosecutor announced that they were not going to pursue Magnum for her role in the debacle. I hope that when the lawsuits are filed that she and Roberts are named as parties defendant so that their depositios can be taken and their versions of events compared to Nifong’s.
