2014-04-28 -Short Attention Span Theater-

Media, Champ, NBA, and a Histrionic, Idiotic, Disgraceful 'Discourse' On Race.

[Mercer's Barely a Blog] What were CNN and MSNBC doing while RT was broadcasting an interview with Ehud Barack about the breakdown of "peace talks" between Israelis and Palestinians; Fox News was covering a breakthrough in DNA research; and BBC News was devoting a Sunday hour to the life of a young, thoughtful, American military widow?

The conga-line of cretins at these networks, together with their special project, Barack Hussein Obama, were all foaming at the mouth over the racist speech of another man: Donald Sterling, owner of the Los Angeles Clippers.
There's really nothing like a sports media distraction.
From abroad, the repugnant president refused to rise above the fray and stick to real issues. He failed to utter sobering, uniting words, such as, "In the US, we don't hound people for the things they say." Oh, no. Broadcasting from Malaysia (whose majority population was in the habit of regularly launching pogroms on more affluent minorities like the Chinese), Champ demonstrated, instead, the extent to which he follows petty racial politicking in this country, and the extent to which he'll go to divide.

Puled the president: "When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don't really have to do anything, you just let them talk. That's what happened here," the President said. Champ also said Sterling's alleged comments are an example of how "the United States continues to wrestle with the legacy of race and slavery and segregation."
Never missing an opportunity to shame and belittle the United States while abroad.
Meanwhile, a retarded CNN anchor-cum-vigilante (Fredricka Whitfield) solicited expert, legal advice from guests on how to dispossess the thought-crime offender of his property: The NBA Team.
Perhaps the BLM could seize the Clipper's business office.
Sterling had bought the team. He clearly values the players as professionals. Actions speak louder and all that stuff.
Meanwhile, Al Sharpton demands the NBA force Sterling to sell the Clippers. He'd buy the team himself, but he's behind a tad in his taxes.

#2 I saw more consideration for the innocence and context of Sterling on ESPN in 30 minutes than nearly every single news source on and off line towards Bundy. Not that they gave Sterling much, but threw in a lot of pending verification, allegedly, was it edited, etc.

#3 The back story on this is not even hardly peeking out. Mr. Sterlings wife is P-O'd about Sterling's, er, generousity towards his former girlfriend, one Ms. V. Stiviano, so the Missus sues said former girlfriend. Per TMZ, "We know Stiviano is extremely upset that the Clippers and Donald Sterling publicly embraced a lawsuit filed by Sterling's wife Shelly against Stivianio, claiming she stole $1.8 million from Donald." (yup, he's the victim! - I asked Mrs. Phester if she would show similar consideration under the same circumstances. I'll not trouble you with her answer.).

I assume that former girlfriend "requested" that Mr. Sterling get the lawsuit dropped and the boodle-train back on track. Mr. Sterling either couldn't or wouldn't do this, so the much-younger Ms. V. Stiviano dropped this little Racial "Bouncing Betty" into Mr. Silvers already not-so-comfortable life.

Ms. V. Stiviano, per TMZ [LINK} has more than 100 hours of recordings in the magazine, ready to engage [LINK].

Moral: Trying to maintain side trim should be left to the pros - like, say, William Jefferson Clinton.

#4 It's boiling down to a business decision for Sterling. I recommend handsome severance packages for both Mrs. Don and the LBFM. Sell the team for $ 1.00 to the first taker. Purchase a nice chalet near Bern, SZ, buy a new BMW, and enjoy.

#7 I dunno, EU. It's kinda like reading about Rospierre and other Red Caps being led to the tumbrels.

#8 That's an awfully big squirrel, and the timing is delicious. I'd agree that Barry is trying to turn it into a squirrel, reacting to a pop topic, this had already blown up before he had his opportunity to ride an opportunity.

There are calls for the seizure of his property. I do not know what sort of rights procedures and personal behavior expectations franchise owners of the NBA brand have but it appears his business model is already wrecked, even have the black man performing physical labor so white man gets rich line out there, "a game steeped in African American culture", a black player calling for the complete separation then formation of a blacks only league - you know, calls for segregation.
