As Intern Wendy will have you know, it's been a string of doozies for the cable network chattering class. With this election thing going down, it seems all they can talk about is politics. Well, except on Nancy Grace, where nothing close to reality is ever discussed.

Put Naomi Campbell in a room with me, and I'll serve her some justice at room temperature, on behalf of everybody she's hit.
MSNBC reports “A federal grand jury on Thursday indicted a Missouri woman for her alleged role in perpetrating a hoax on the online social network MySpace against a 13-year-old neighbor who committed suicide. Lori Drew of suburban St. Louis allegedly helped create a false-identity MySpace account to contact Megan Meier, who thought she was chatting with a 16-year-old boy named Josh Evans. Josh didn't exist. Megan hanged herself at home in October 2006 after receiving cruel messages, including one stating the world would be better off without her.” This is one of the same types of crimes Nancy Grace did against the late Melinda Duckett, and Nancy and CNN are alleged to have paid out tens-of-millions in dollars to settle this lawsuit against them. With a ordered-contingency against discussing the crimes of Nancy Grace in this case, CNN was not able to respond to MSNBC’s repeated requests for further comments and explanations. Nancy should definitely be in prison for these and other crimes she has committed against real victims. Click on the Link to help give Nancy a hand.
