OK, first, I said yesterday that there'd probably be stories coming out soon suggesting that the Bin Laden tape was either fabricated or manipulated. I suspect that there's no way that tape will ever leave government hands for truly impartial analysis, so we'll never really know for sure one way or the other. Here's a story from the Washington Post and another from NewsMax (nothing but jokers in the indymedia right now).
So Cracker Barrel is being sued for racism (no, not by poor white folks) again. A black woman says that others were served before her. Boy, if that's all it takes to launch a $100 million (yes, one hundred million dollar) lawsuit, then sign me up. There are lots of times where I've been at a business and some asshole didn't like my ears or tattoos and I get bad service. I'm not saying it's right, but I'm not sure it entitles me to $100 million. It just entitles me to tell everyone I know not to give their money to that company.
Many of you have listened to Saira's college/community radio show online, as well as I'm sure similar shows in your local area. It may well be a thing of the past… Thanks to the DMCA, college radio stations may well be banned from broadcasting over the web. (more…)
Well, I'm off now to take out my airconditioner for the winter.
