Jon Stewart Rips Nancy Grace Over The Duke Case Fiasco
Last Thursday, Jon Stewart was absolutely brilliant (well, he usually is). I love his anger. Here, he gives Nancy Grace a long-overdue smackdown. This is as good as a Media Matters essay, just with more humor.
Nancy Grace took a convenient vacation day on Wednesday, when the charges were dropped. She will never apologize to the three boys who were charged. This simply highlights how she has no respect for our legal system or the concept of 'innocent until proven guilty' at all. She's entertaining as hell. But she is not a legal scholar or even a decent journalist. She's what I call a raving 'victims rights' fanatic run amok. And never mind she launched her media career by capitalizing on (and embelishing) the murder of her fiance in 1979.
