  • Disappointing

    I had high hopes but these were quickly dashed by the irresponsible way the Karen read trial was presented and commented on. I was completely impartial and watched the trial with an open mind. It’s a shame this guy didn’t do the same. No place in journalism for people that cannot be impartial and follow the evidence.

  • Poor take on the DuckGate episode

    The dollar bills were not counterfeit, they were play money. Rubber ducks are not witness intimidation. If you think Officer O’Keefe was hit by a car, you are not smart.
