  • How is being pressured out of a job for committing perjury as opposed to going to jail ( like what would happen to any of the rest of us without a rich executive's priviledge and power) a HIGHER standard? Higher than what ? No standard at all?

  • At times media personnel are just scavengers, I agree more with the girl rather than the guy from thhe centre for American Advancement or whatever, its upto the ppl concerned to choose whatever they want to disclose
