No, what you did was determine that the accused was guilty before the facts were known.

Are you insane? There's never even been a suspect. Whom did I claim was guilty?

Re: Empire' star Jussie Smollett attacked in possible hate crime

The Covington kids, Kavanaugh, the Don Jr. Indictment, and now this Smollett nonsense. Etc, etc, etc.

Why would anyone believe anything the media reports?

Fake news is a real thing.

We can only go by past incidences where they jumped the gun; Kavanaugh, the Covington school boys, Trump and Putin sitting in a tree k i s s i n g, ... so why would they feel remorse for being flat out wrong over siding with Smollett?

If it's a hoax, people probably believed it because a few miles away from where I live, an innocent man was murdered by a police officer because the police officer assumed that man was reaching for his gun when he said "I'm reaching for my wallet." Some famous actor staging a hate crime doesn't mean racism stopped existing. Last night I read an article about the NBA 3 point shooting contest and all the comments were about how black people can't shoot. So much racism everywhere you look. But a lot of people aren't looking.

Nobody jumped the gun on Kavanaugh, everybody knew he was a dick in college and they tried to use his behavior against him. It wasn't a good idea, he was going to be confirmed, but there was no hoax there. The Covington School Boys? Fine, you can say "liberals jumped the gun" but that whole story was so stupid in the first place. And then you go to "RUSSIA WITCH HUNT," even though Trump's friends, family, and campaign members did actually meet with Putin's people during the campaign and lied about it.

Everybody is stupid these days. New media is stupid. That's why I never commented on any of the things you're saying "they jumped the gun" on.

The right winger posters also said the bombs sent to CNN and prominent liberals was a hoax. Not just right wing posters, but Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter. This is the point. Not that liberals jump to judgement too quickly. The point is that new media is bad. Reputable news organizations like the WSJ, the Times, the Atlantic, McClatchy, NPR and the BBC are the only thing people should be reading. Instead they're reading tweets, facebook, far right/left websites and watching youtube videos for their news. If those are your news sources, you need somebody to slap you in the face, pour cold water on you, and tell you to stop cold turkey because that crap is making you exponentially lose brain cells.

I bet CNN will come up with something similar to this:

'Settle down with this 'fake' nonsense. Jussie is an outspoken Trump hater. We all know Trump is a Russian spy.
Trump sent 2 of his KGB buddies to put the hurt on this poor guy.

He and Putin have sources in the police dept to hide the evidence. This is all so obvious. Shame on those
who dont believe this man's story.

The funnypart is that the slower minded antiTrumpers would believe anything even this.

While I don't disagree with you, what I am suggesting, over and over again to deaf ears, is that people who claim that they have been victimized deserve to be believed without presuming the guilt of the accused.

There have been too many frauds for default to belief.

Oh, Fletch, then you haven't read the thread. And why are you talking to me about Trump? See. This is the thing. People like you attack people like me for things we have never done nor said. But you got four likes, so I guess you have equally brain dead company. Shocker.

I havent read the entire thread, no. But I have read a lot of it. Thats irrelevant anyway since I was responding to a single comment of yours. And since you didnt address a word of what I wrote, I can only assume that you have no objection to it.

Possibly, although the Executive Directors publicly started that they had no intentions of writing him off; but that may be out of their control now.

You need to register with a party. I know it is very fashionable now to be an "independent" but this just gives you less of a voice.
