2. Exactly!
Again, the news media comes on and says, "Now, with both sides of the story"...There is not "Both sides" dude is a racist pig and that is the story! I am so tired of the media acting like there is two sides to every story. What happened to the TRUTH?

Sorry, some stories do not have but one side and that is the truth. IMO.
