Now why was this burried in the back pages of the Tribune??? If this was a conservative political figure it'd be front page news and on breaking news on every tv station.

Farrakhan did not stop following the collision and exited the Toll Road, state police said. He was stopped by LaPorte County police and arrested on charges of driving while intoxicated, driving with a suspended license, leaving the scene of personal injury accident and possession of drug paraphernalia. Well isn't that special??????
Again, if this was a child of say, umm, George or Jeb Bush...it'd be front page news on every paper and all over CNN, FOX etc.

His race is however just one more reason to suppress it.
I mean, look at Jessie Jackass and what it took to bring him down.

You are right about that. Bury their own on the back page, but put 'the enemy' on the front page. Media bias is illustrated in many ways alright!

He got brought down??? He's been quiet lately, but I don't think he's down. I'm waiting for the trial on E2...bet there'll be some hairy stuff come out on that.

They don't even try to hide the bias any more, Meek, they celebrate it and throw it in our faces that they get away with it.

With FOX News on the rise, maybe (crosses fingers) that will be changing.
Anyway, look for the 'RATS to take ANOTHER BIG HIT in November 2004. Bush re-elected, of course ! :O)

The affair and accompanying scandal have irrevocably harmed the (ahem) "Revrend" Jackson..
He's not out, but he's down. His credibility is shot more full of holes than ever before and some corporations are beginning to realize that.

He never had credibility with companies, they just were afraid of his boycotts and coercion.
