Weird. I hadn't heard the cop was Jewish anywhere.

True and if he were a Muslim or a Leftist this story would have been buried after the second apology.

Not on FR

Even if Mel muttered some crap while he was in his drunken stupor, it still doesn't warrant the amount of media "fluffing" (a term from the porn industry) given the incident.
One has to read between the lines and ask what media wants to achieve. Lord knows, the Kennedy crashes, (2 times in a week) was a much bigger story, with much more "covering up" than this Gibson incident, yet it didn't raise any eyebrows at the NYT's. No biased "journalism" (if you can call what's written on that waste of forrest products that) there, no sir.

Yeah, I agree, I've said stupid hurtfull things when drunk that I regret deeply.

Too bad the Drive-by's can't see they hypocrisy of their support for Hairballah, but crucifixion (pun intended) of
Gibson.

Uh, he's a movie star -- actually, the richest actor in the history of show biz -- and a formal sex symbol involved in a scandal. They hope to sell papers and advertising.

Since when does the public have "the right to know" when a private citizen makes a fool of himself?

This is ridiculous.

I expect the ACLU to be all over this case any day now, insisting that Mel is entitled to his opinions etc. /s

"Most important movie"

Is this author trying to get nominated for dumbest lump of flesh to ever sucessfully peck at typewriter keys?

And I want Harvey Levin to make public who his tipster was on this story. Could it have come from 'someone' in the Sheriff's office named Wee? 'Someone' who had an ax to grind and knew just who might make the biggest stink about it? That might put TMZ's conduct in the use of this story in context as well.

I watched this guy on a couple of the news/entertainment shows tonight. He's slime.

No one alive remembers any video cameras recording that.

Or anyone talking about it in the news either.

"They hope to sell papers and advertising."

I think it goes a little deeper than that. I think Media is trying to cause bad feeling between the Jewish and Christian communities, in hopes of reducing support for Israel's defensive actions against their terrorist pals. Civil unrest sells papers and advertizing too, but I think certain media are motivated for other reasons. It all works into their anti Bush, anti war, political agenda. It may only be in a small way, but it all adds up.
