On August 16, 2006, I announced what should be ecstatic news for supporters of the Duke Three (surely the ones who want the nightmare to end sooner rather than latter) in an article entitled "The '60 Minutes' season opener should close the Duke case."
The gist of my article:
"Mike Nifong, make a note: as of now, on September 24, 2006, an inevitable hour of infamy finally will follow your undeserved and disgraceful fifteen minutes of fame and you will realize that your short-term political gain from your deplorable (political) decision to prosecute (and persecute) the Duke Three was NOT worth it.
"Sure, you played the race card, it won you the Durham County, North Carolina District Attorney Democrat primary, and that would be tantamount to election if you are not exposed before Election Day 2006 as a shameless political hack whom Durham County's good people will not want back. Mr. Bradley, 60 Minutes's Ed, will leave you politically dead.

The final editing for a season opening presentation on September 24 in an ongoing matter probably will not be done until hours, if not minutes, before broadcast, of course.
I will not be baited into revealing sources or breaking confidences, but there is more comfort that I can provide to the concerned.

Naw, they won't do a 180. They'll do a 360.
180? At least.
I heard Today Show today 'justifying' their coverage of the Jonbenet arrest. "We only reported what was newsworthy. (We didn't have to check our sources.)"
"We only reported what was newsworthy. (We didn't have to check our sources.)"
Was that Newsweek you were quoting??
Arent the NYT and CBS one company? I doubt 60 minutes will be as honest as the deluded Gaynor thinks. What naivete!
Yeowch. Could very well be. I've seen them in a rather heavily slanted light, of late.
Ha! What's this guy been smoking?
A blind person could see the farce in the Jon Benet arrest.I would like to feel sorry for the citizens who paid for the farce,but I just can't.They elected the boobs.
