Juicy Smollet Trial

Not even close. The fact that these outlets are still covering Trump's crimes doesn't mean they're "at war" with him. Trump is at war with the truth and you're naïve if you think he isn't the one controlling today's GOP. Saying he lost, therefore let's not report on his insurrection hearings, failed attempts to conceal his taxes, etc etc is just dumb. And it sure as hell doesn't equate CNN with FOX.

The day you can show CNN hosts revealing privately that they don't believe their own mantra is the day you can say the two are the same.

Gee. where'd ajax run off to?

We're all dying to see if he'll condemn FOX News for being a fake news outlet.

Nothing about multiple FOX News hosts lying to America all year long?

I've developed a bit of a True Crime obsession with watching interrogations and interviews. Lately I've been watching The Behavior Panel, where 4 behavior experts analyze videos of people describing crimes.

In this video they are looking at the Robin Roberts interview that Smollet gave to ABC. The Panel gives Smollet high marks for his acting ability, in being able to internally draw upon those feelings needed to bring tears, for example. The biggest problem is not with Smollet's acting, it's with the story itself. You can see Robin Roberts is starting to feel some skepticism.

The noose appears to be the most damning detail. You are in a 'tussle' with 2 men, and you realize that someone has put a noose around your neck and tugged on it until there are rope burns, you leave the noose around on? You've got all of your 'fight or flight' adrenaline pumping through you, and you leave that noose around your neck?

I find these videos interesting because they show that many times your body wants to tell the truth even when your words do not.

Obama said this during after the Ferguson riots which were ultimately based on inaccurate and biased BLM eye witness testimony.

But it applied well to the Jesse Smollet case once we proved that making this stuff up was exactly what some BLM activists like Smollet were doing.

A word of caution. You are doomed. You'll never come out of the True Crime hole again.

Here. Take a hit off this. She's like a sickness in my brain...

You might be paraphrasing the following quote, made at Benedict College when discussing a report about alleged systemic racism within the Ferguson PD:

“What happened in Ferguson is not a complete aberration. It’s not just a one-time thing. It’s something that happens.”

That’s a bit different than your version, with regard to both the wording, and what was being referred to.

No I remember the exact quote. Granted it was a snippet on Fox at the time when I had cable.
