The wagist blog has been doing all of the heavy lifting investigative reporting on the Trayvon case. They were the ones who found his Twitter account and the gangsta handle he had and those recent photos of him with grill teeth and tats that belied the angelic innocent image that the press swallowed hook line and sinker from the Martin family lawyer.
The reporter Dan Linehan from Wagist has been attacked from all sides for his stellar reporting. Even his editor wrote an editorial today saying that he had done stellar reporting, but then apologized for the content. I suggest that everyone go on wagist and commend Dan Linehan for his stellar reporting: http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/misconceptions-in-the-trayvon-martin-case
And here’s the story from three days ago from www.wagist.com that dug into Trayvon’s thuggisth background. Lots of mainstream reporters took their lead from this reporting:http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/was-trayvon-martin-a-drug-dealer
Now the reporter’s boss on this piece is half apologizing for the reporter’s stellar reporting, where the mainstream media never bothered to tread. I recommend giving credit to the reporter, Dan Linehan. http://www.wagist.com/2012/dan-linehan/was-trayvon-martin-a-drug-dealer
