Thank goodness for the bloggers! The irony of MS Sheehan's blog is everything she has written would never have come to light had she had her way, "We know you know"!
Imagine if we were left to rely on the drive by media on this case--the Laxers would be finished and Cash Michaels would be extolling the virtues of the pot bangers.
Ms. Sheehan is just angry because bloggers do a better job of investigating than her beloved newspaper.
The investigation attracted widespread media attention and created an avalanche of controversy, with many national television pundits and other critics complaining that Nifong rushed to obtain indictments without conducting an adequate investigation -- and without uncovering apparent flaws in the accuser's story.
Is there a bigger hypocrite than this John Stevenson? He makes his living with words. I believe those words were chosen carefully. Did he agree with the pundits? Mmmm....maybe. Did he disagree with the pundits? Mmmmm...maybe. That sentence was designed not to piss anyone off.
If it were not for people like us who truly believed in their innocence these boys would not have a chance.
