NBC is about to become ZBC.
The whole racial issue is gasoline looking for a match. And like gasoline, once it ignites, it is difficult to put it out.
Heck, the doctored tape might have even motivated the prosecutors to be more aggressive and go for 2nd Degree murder versus manslaughter.
NBC has some explainin’ to do.
And of course NBC turned up the heat this week with guest appearances of Al Sharptongue and Ben Crump and the Martins this morning with lame talk of the DOJ getting involved and their own civil suit.
I think as the Beasley’s would say — bring it on — we’ll just add all of that to the damages.
As I’ve posted before, I’d love to see Zimmerman bankrupt and elicit public apologies from Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and the rest of the cast of characters, but in the case of NBC, I would make a non-cash settlement requiring them to produce and air during prime time a documentary laying out exactly what they and the others did to gin up sentiment against Zimmerman; and also present all of the information about TM’s background and thuggish tendencies and aspirations that was kept from the jury.
I feel like Flounder in Animal House saying “Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy,” during the chaos.
Thanks Doc, but under Obamacare that will not be allowed because you may save more lives which costs the government money. Better to let them die and let Obamabots live.
Are you from New York? Look at it this way: If it comes to trial with the litigation firm that made GZ the offer, it's not exactly their first rodeo. They know how to pick a jury. Ever been to Staten Island? Most of Queens? A lot of Brooklyn? Parts of the Bronx? There are a lot of conservatives and a lot of ticked-off white folks and Hispanics, and NBC is a big corporation.
Also, for their own reasons of class envy and redistribution, corporate-hating liberals in a suit like this can make great jurors for the plaintiff. I think George will do fine wherever he goes.
“Actual damages” might include the need to keep moving around from hotel to hotel, private security for him and his parents, plenty of items there for the clever lawyer.

Politics and Justice in Florida
State GOP leaders politicized the Trayvon Martin case.

they can pick anywhere that nbc “publishes”.
Prefereably a state with punative damages.
The offending reporters were all in FL. They have a facility near the incident. Charges will be brought in FL. I read the .pdf of the plaintiff's document a couple of days ago.
“Rachel Madcow can be kept to clean the toilets.”
“Do you honestly think she can ever do any job which doesn’t involve the use of her mouth? “
So,,,, she can use her mouth for that job.
Clean the toilets ....
....Use her mouth
She can eat Sh.... As far as I’m concerned
You forget, poor little Trayvon had bloodied knuckles too, from Zimmerman hitting them with his face.
Actually that's not quite true. Martin had scraped knuckles, consistent with having bashed someone's face in bare-handed.
I hope George offers reasonably-priced Olympics packages to “cord cutters” when he owns NBC.
can they change judges?? this is the last thing GZ needs.
What they did might be “slander/libel per se”, meaning that it wouldn’t matter. I haven’t read any case law on that sort of thing in well over a decade, and probably never any that was specific to Florida. I assume in this day and age that painting somebody as a racist would qualify. Of course the real red meat to this is getting to drag NBC through the mud.
