The Christian/Newsom murder is linked as a related article. The media is one of the top 5 things in this world that is severely fucking up our society IMO. Now I don't give a shit whether Imus lost his job or not. What he said was retarded, but it really wasn't newsworthy beyond an hour of coverage or so. The point is, Imus was fired because of the media, not because of Sharpton. All the media had to do was tell everybody to STFU about it, and chances are Imus would have kept his job. Then you have something like this happen, an actual newsworthy event, go completely uncovered. Now they're talking about the judge having to decide on whether those 5 pieces of horse shit are going to get the death penalty or not. If the media had covered that story like they do with bullshit stories like Anna Nicole Smith or Imus, there would be no question that they would get the death penalty. It's bullshit and it pisses me off so fucking much.
