The Public’s Right to Know

Posted on May 30, 2003 by Aaron Benson

Today, repulsed by MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough and weary of watching anything on Faux News, I flipped to CNN — the supposed mature, responsible news network of cable’s big three.

What was on? Some bickering talking head show with the following headline: LACI BABY AUTOPSY DETAILS.

Below the headline: PLASTIC TAPE LOOPED AROUND BABY’S NECK, TEAR IN CHEST.

The American news media are a disgrace. An abject disgrace. I feel sorry for the family.
