I thought I was watching enough different sources to have the opportunity to hear various 'sides'. The bottom line is, why can't NEWS media report FACTS, not SIDES of any story. wait...rating points...duh, I forgot. yep it is so bad, this hunt for ratings, that i was watching the weather channel monday morning and they were reporting on the california earthquake...weather guy holds up 2 bricks and says "these fell off that building behind me, if people were sitting there they could have been struck and killed." well, that's great and all, but the earthquake occurred overnight and no one was sitting there, so why do you need to bring it up? why the need to sensationalize?

Add in that reporters are human, with all of their own biases and views, and you rarely get unbiased reports on nearly anything. Human nature.

weather guy holds up 2 bricks and says "these fell off that building behind me, if people were sitting there they could have been struck and killed." Yeah, and if someone who just walked across the street hadn't waited for the bus to pass, he would have been flattened! Sounds like that weather guy needs to stick to inaccurate weather forecasts.

college broadcasting was to know what is fact and when it was being clouded by your own opinion. hahahaha...have you been on a college campus lately? do you see any of the "impartial" college professors that have shows on cable these days and how partial they are? or that are consulted on newscasts? the leaning tower of pisa doesn't tilt as far left as these guys...

OK, the Grand Jury announcement is due any moment now.
This should be interesting. Let's pray that cooler heads prevail regardless as to the decision rendered.

I just do not understand the connection between "I'm unhappy about this situation!" and "Let's burn down the city!"

I have a coworker who lives on the edge of Ferguson and she is heartbroken seeing her city burn. She has watched the city rebuild itself and now it is being destroyed, in many cases, by people who do not even live there.

until we make personal responsibility and taking ownership of our actions a priority, nothing will change. if we look for an excuse or rationale for every negative act we do, nothing will change. if we don't hold people accountable, nothing will change.

It's all the fake outrage the resulting lawlessness wrung out of the fake outrage that I'm tired of.
Any excuse will do.

I feel sorry for Michael Brown's family. I know they feel that justice was not served until they are willing to admit the actions taken by their son contributed directly to his death, their definition of justice will continue to be "Wilson must be convicted."

I agree with Happy. Having heard the prosecutor last night explain the evidence and testimony presented to the Grand Jury, it sounds like Officer Wilson was in fear for his life and rightly so.

According to my co-worker, most of the rioters are out-of-towners who have come to Ferguson looking for an excuse to become violent. That is really sad.

They cancelled 10 flights into STL last night because people in Ferguson were shooting in the air as planes came in to land. My daughter flies in tonight at 5:36. Am I nervous? Yes.
As far as it being out-of-towners, only if by out of town you mean from the north side of St Louis. The media reported only 2 of the 61 arrests were people from outside the Metro area. The fact that most the fires were clustered around West Florissant Rd and Canfield Dr (the site of the Brown shooting) seems to indicate it's folks from the immediate neighborhood.
