This story has all the makings of a sordid B Movie plot..and its all true. Thats the scary part. A reporter secretly tapes a phone call from a politico that seconds later commits suicide in the reporters newspapers lobby..the reporter tells his bosses of the taped convo and later that evening gets the boot.. The newspaper had the nads to publish parts of the illegally taped convo prior to canning the reporter..can anyone tell me who is wrong in this whole mess? Does anyone care? The media gets to police itself which to me is like letting the fox guard the henhouse. The newspaper then says its firing the reporter for doing something illegal (taping the convo without the politicians conscent is illegal in Fla. as well as alot of states) that reflects negatively on the paper as a whole. REFLECTS NEGATIVELY ON THE PAPER? GIVE ME A BREAK YOU FUCKTARDS!The link to the NY Times article is embedded in the title..if you read it i would LOVE to hear your opinion on this shit..cuz its all shit as far as I am concerned. The reporter is a piece of shit because he said he knew the guy was on the edge of suicide when he pushed the record button.. the paper is a rag because they published parts of a desperate mans last convo, THEN fired the guy who taped it.
The politician was a real jerkwad, but that doesn't give anyone the right to make money off his action..blowing your brains to hell and doing it in public is sad enough for his family to deal with. The guy was out of time apparently and felt he had no other options..when you dance with the devil ..shit happens...coke and male hookers will bring out the worst in anyone when done to excess,as this pol apparently did..
