You know (and I realize that this comment will be highly controversial), you know, it's amazing to me that in this day and age, if someone is rich and/or famous and accused of a crime, it's amazing to me that the media never seems to give them "Due Process"...
"Media Due Process"
For lack of a better term...
It doesn't seem to exist in this day and age.
I'd like to hear the other side of the story before I make up my mind, thank you very much!
Until I do, from the accused own's mouth, I might add, I'm going to presume innocent until proven guilty.
I will not be "the court of public opinion" in response to the media, any media, slighted one way or slighted the other.
I simply refuse.
I don't know the accused, I don't know what happened, and until all of the facts are on the table -- pro and con -- I refuse to make up my mind on the subject.
A single set of facts from a single media outlet, or even several -- are not all of the facts, because they could have been cherry-picked, one way or the other...
I take this approach; this mindset; with all media in this day and age -- not just the media outlet that broke this story...
OK, those are my thoughts.
Go ahead and lambaste me if you disagree...
