  • Biased reporting Season 50

    While he directly reads from an article about death row inmate Tony Apanovitch, he entirely omits his previous guilty plea to sexual battery of a 16 year old girl when Apanovitch was 21. Originally charged with rape, which is the victim's account. While yes, it doesn't mean he is guilty of a second rape (and murder) it is huge for context. Seriously offensive to leave this out.
