If that happened, a directed verdict would be warranted.

Thanks, abb - reading those links now.
Nothing in the NandO today. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Bupkis. So much for the "new" Melanie Sills.
You've updated your profile. LOL
Jakki O'Knight? She certainly doesn't LOOK Irish!!

Several days ago y'all were teasing TommyDale about being the friend "Tom" on someone's site. Was it Destine's or Pleasure Ryde?... because that same "Tom" is on Jakki's page (top left). Could that just be a coincidence?
Yeah, back to the future!
Melanie is so liberal she can't she how the coverage is/was biased.
But, her Editor just didn't think the Racial slurs were relevant - or the races of the suspects or victim - or that the Police were reportedly drunk.
Editorial Decisions - NOT bias.
Like someone else said - where was this editor when the stories were printed on Duke Lacrosse and Colin Finnerty?
They call people that sift through data and detect specific, distinct, and identical patterns - conspiracy theorists.
Coincidentially, it gives them cover and throws barbs at the critics.
If there not a person making those "Editorial Decisions"?
Does not that person's decisions reflect on their inherent biases?
If you look, the N&O has only published info harmful to Nifong when another News Organiation was running with it. When the cat's out of the bag, they print - and then say "we reported on that."
Why has NOT ONE news organization printed the Judge's name that postponed Kim Roberts case for the 2nd time?
How much stuff on this case has been produced by posters right here - when News Organizations with incredible resources and contacts have ignored it?
Melanie is still pissed at the Duke Player's for all that swaggering!
And those dreaded Noise violations - it was in the public's interest to have them reinstated!
But the black cook and racial intimidation and public drunkeness - Melanie's confident that will be investigated by the appropriate people. No need for the N&O to get involved.
I confess. LOL!
LOL!
No, that Tom is the greeter. He is even my evil twin's friend...
What I don't understand is if no report was filed, who tipped off the press?
Well, let's just say that you are not the only one here with an evil twin! BWahahahahaha!! ;-)
They ignore immoral and uncivil behavior in their varsity athletes, especially those in high-profile sports such as lacrosse and football, because of their status on campus and off.
Lacrosse=high profile? Hardly, if that were true Pressler would not have been fired. Lacrosse costs universities money, unlike football and basketball.
I would love for the author to show me the college where "drunken rude behavior" does not occur...give me a break. I'd bet money the author was drunk and rude at some point in his/her college life too.
Any relation?

Raleigh Police Investigate Peeping Tom
/just kidding ;)
I am going to have to come up with an even eviler triplet.....I'll make that one a drag queen.
The first report by 911 was made by the manager of Blinco's if I read it all correctly. I guess that was the "man" although after reading all this stuff about Jakki, we just don't really know any more. ;-)
I wonder what those columnists are saying this morning in the coffee rooms? I may have an evil twin that sends this latest one to them...What do you think? LOL!
