Newsweek did initially participate in the witch hunt. After all, the mantra of the wackedout media is that white guys are guilty until all chances are removed.
Now they backtrack in the face of overwhelming evidence, but as the last line of the story makes clear, the damage has been done and Newsweek along with the City of Durham has destroyed reputations and must pay a high price for their destructive actions.
It'll be interesting to see how events play out when the charges are finally dropped (and I believe they will be). Kinda reminiscent of the Richard Jewel (sp?)/Atlanta bombing case--a rush to judgement by both the authorities and media in which the accused came out on top and sued the pants off everyone.
I doubt that. The only people likely to pay a "high price" here are those who were falsely accused.
Richard Jewell was successful in suing various media hacks.
they will, the idiot voters who elected nifong will pay the settlements from there taxes
