And then the reporter was accosted by police, and faced these charges, and now the story is evolving from ‘how easy it is to shoplift’ to ‘how they’re throwing the book at minority women..’

She'll be a jello wrestler by the end of the summer.

....not that there's anything wrong with that.

$3.99 ear rings? Classy.

She wouldn’t be suffering from AAES (Afirmative Action Entitlement Syndrome) now would she?

Good thing she wasn’t doing a story on ‘murder’.

Because ‘shoplifting’ is a new and serious crime that most of the public is unaware of.

“Police said Fontaine took a $40 bottle of cologne, two gold earrings worth $3.99 each and $15 necklace from the jewelry department and went into a fitting room.”

Since when does one need a private fitting room to try on cologne and jewelry?

Since when does the fitting room attendant even allow one to take a ‘consumable’ like cologne into the fitting room?

The places I have gone, they only let you take in clothes.

She needed some new ear rings, that would catch people’s attention, stop staring at her big chompers.

If you really are doing a story like that, maybe you should contact the police and perhaps the store's district manager beforehand so that if you are caught they'll not press charges.

The follow up story on being arrested, fingerprinted and stuck in a cell with the city's more interesting people should win her a Pulitzer.

Well, well. Like another cub-reporter from Connecticut who fell into a pot of jam. Maybe when she's all worn out Oprah will replace her with Ms. Fontaine.
