Is that what I said?...You're acting like the media wasn't caught manipulating the facts to perpetuate the racist storyline they wanted to sell. Keyword is sell, that's all the media gives a #### about now. The news isn't here to report the facts, they are here to sell a story to get viewers watching so they get more ad revenue. And everyone will agree a tragic situation that leaves a child dead just doesn't have that same star power as racist situation that leaves a child dead.
I really hope that the lawsuit will leave a big enough dent in the pockets of NBC to atleast cause pause the next time they want to manipulate a story to boost their ratings. But of course it wont.
