This is a letter I wrote to NBC news:
Regarding your reporting of Dominique Strauss-Khan, I am amazed and disappointed that not once have I heard the word "alleged" ... "Alleged" rape victim ..."alleged" crime .... etc.
You have mentioned many times that Strauss-Khan was caught on an airplane back to France as if he was running away ... I read that his flight was pre-scheduled and ticketed before the supposed act. It's like the press has already proven him guilty. The press is all to eager to report sensationalism. Reminds me of yellow journalism!
To see constantly the photos of one of the worlds most powerful men brought down, paraded in front of all the worlds cameras like a common criminal.
Why is he at Rikers Prison, one of the worst prisons in our country, not like the "country club" prison where Martha Stewart spent her days. Why are you, as a news provider, presenting only negative views? Where is your unbiased reporting?
Why do you present with such glee the size of his prison cell compared to his $3000.00 a night hotel room ( you, of course have never stayed in a luxury hotel?)
Why do we need to know what his meals consisted of?
Why do we need to know what his meals consisted of?
Have we killed another bad guy like Osama or have we just killed a brilliant man's carreer for ratings?
What if he is innocent? What happened to innocent until proven guilty? Seems like he is guilty and must prove his innocence? What if this is a set up by the opposing political party ?
