Do you think the media is being fair in the Treyvon Martin case.?

.....are they convicting Zimmerman when all the facts are not known yet? Is the family taking advantage of this sad event just to get media attention for themselves. What about that idiot Sharpton, is he just using this to further his rage of black racism?

Does anyone think Zimmerman can ever get a fair trial. Do you think that the media should be kept silent in these cases until the trial is over, like in many other countries. How can we say we have justice in this country when we really do not. Do you like to live that way?

Update:

Oh pumpkin... Sharpton is a racist idiot.. I don't have to be black to see that!

    The "lame stream" media has that title for a very good reason. They aren't being fair to Martin or Zimmerman, that isn't their intent. Making money is what the media is about, they would never let the truth stand in the way of a good story. Giving black racists a new cause, and inciting white backlash, makes no difference to the media. Media whores like sharpton and jackson thrive in that environment. Finding an unbiased jury will be nearly impossible, but that's not their concern. The bottom line is.

    Yes, yes, yes.

    No, yes, no.

    The media doesn't care about being fair, they just want to get the best ratings possible, even if they have to doctor 911 calls.
