Roger - a brief explanation.
Yes I am fully functioning. However there has been a incident over
here that had been ongoing for 18 months (the ramifications are still being felt). In March of 2006, during spring break, members of the Duke Lacrosse team had a party at off site location and had ordered two strippers. The booking company sent two black women instead of the request for white/hispanic. Not a savory situation at all. One of the strippers showed up high on booze and drugs and couldn't perform. The situation deteriorated and the parties separated angrily. The high stripper was driven to the hospital and to prevent from being arrested on drug-related charges screamed she had been raped. The woman as it turned out was a prostitute with 3 illegitimate children a criminal record (she had tried to run over a cop with a stolen cab). Since the case theoretically represented 3 whites raping a black, the press was all over it. The DA - Mike Nifong who had been appointed on an interim basis decided that this was his ticket to get elected to a new term in a heavily black area -Durham, NC. He performed bizarre and illegal/ unethical acts in trying to build his case (He was eventually forced to resign, was disbarred and convicted of perjury. Now he is being sued in civil court and is under indictment for his actions in this case). There was NO evidence to support any of the accusations No DNA, One of the accused was not even on the site at the time the crime was to have occurred. The line-up was deliberately stacked, the accuser constantly changing her story, DA withholding exculpatory evidence. The state assumed the prosecution and declared the accused "innocent". What does this have to do with Global Warming, MRSA etc? The press throughout the entire exercise was going to put those three boys in jail for 30 years. They ignored the evidence (or lack thereof), hid the truth. The main problems were the New York Times. The Raleigh News and Observer, Durham Herald Sun and CNN. A history professor(KC Johnson) at NYU was so upset at the treatment he began a blog to counteract the falsehoods propagated by the MSM - He's won a number of awards now - but the only thing between those boys and prison was the pressure exhibited by those blogs- The blogs that have been ridiculed here-they produced the truth when it was needed. Those of us intimate with this case know what happened and without a doubt the Media had a political/economic agenda. They have been totally exposed but contrition is not part of their vocabulary. Meanwhile, the three students had to spend $5,000,000 to defend themselves. Duke hasn't shown any contrition either - they immediately kicked the boys out of school and a significant portion of the faculty has continued to attack them verbally. Fortunately, the families have been made whole financially. Duke has make multimillion dollar settlements out of court to avoid public humiliation. The families are now suing Durham for the malicious and fraudulent prosecution. In summary, based upon the performance of the media and the "enlightened" academics at Duke, only an idiot would allow them to influence any major decisions. Significant portions of both groups lied and were willing to sacrifice innocents to further their "vision". Golly gee, who are we looking at participating in the GW arena, omigod. Bear in mind, if it wasn't for a large number of the blogs that I access, the truth would have never surfaced. |

I don't watch CNN much and don't read the local papers, but WRT the New York Times, I smell horse****. You got any links to any articles where they proclaim the guys guilty? I'd be interested to see them. bw |

They ignored the evidence (or lack thereof), hid the truth. Sadly, you live in a country with an amazing media. I don't know who controls it, or if anyone does, but what ends up being aired is often at extreme odds with just about every other country's media. Most countries also have a strong dissenting media voice, but I don't know where that is in the US, as I never heard it/read it. -- ant Don't try to reply to my email addy: I'm borrowing that of the latest scammer/spammer |
