OK, so...then we should rename Fox as the White network?
(BET is not a news network...)
DERP
MSNBC as well. But hey I suppose. Did you happen to notice the all the reporters in the gallery at the announcement were white. This discussion made me look for that.
MSNBC as well.
What indication did you get from the GJ decision that Micheal being black had nothing to do with his being shot?
I'm not claiming it was...but how can you claim is was not?
So does that mean that FOXNews is the White Entertainment Network?
"alleged petty theft is punishable by murder
social media (which includes LIVE FOOTAGE) is not credible
darren wilson WAS responsible for the death of mike brown but thats not enough to even INDICT HIM
a white man is able to kill an unarmed 18 year old"

No, just name it the Network that routinely beats the pants off of MSNBC and CNN combined when it comes to ratings.
Reporting breaking news is different than a panel on "Race in America"
Did they do a "discussion on race in America" with an all-white panel?

One would think a panel discussion of race in America might include at least one person of a different race.
If everything the guy talking said is true then I'd have to agree with the decision.
I never did understand why this became such a big thing. There are so, so many worse examples of police acting in a manner that I think is likely criminal or deeply wrong. Why this was escalated I can only guess was because of the possibly erroneous witness testimony and the media using it as a ratings tool.
After I found out that Brown had robbed a store and jumped in a cop car and went for the gun... I really didn't care after that.
Missouri law however does not trump federal lawThe fact of the matter is that Missouri law allows police officers tremendous leeway in using deadly force. There was no need under the law that Wilson to be in fear for his life...He could have shot Micheal in the back while Micheal was fleeing.
Missouri law allows a police officer to use deadly force to stop a person from fleeing apprehension even it the officer only suspects the person may have committed a crime. That basically is anybody.
That the person is running away, turning to surrender, or running towards, or standing with his hands up does not matter.
After the altercation at the police vehicle...once Micheal ran away...under Missouri law...he was a dead man.

Cops need cameras on them for their entire shifts.
And someone not on the force should be in charge of the raw video.
