covering a nonissue instead of important issues is not a new low for them. It's standard operating positiion for them.

2. It is the perfect morality play for the RadCons |
|
once you understand this, you realize why they are spending the time on this... no news item.
But lets see... man kills PREGNANT wife, that is a no - no, and now he is getting punished.
Now THINK HARD of the frame under this whole thing... and how it fits the stern father values that they want to push on us

6. Not at all, the entire Peterson trial has been a media stage-show |
|
...that has been dragged out beyond anything that reflects the right to a speedy trial. Now that it is over except for the shouting, who is next on the program?

7. I'm sick of our making symbols out of perpetrators..... |
|
The family of both victim (and the convicted) should be allowed to move on in peace--that means no more coverage!

9. I followed the case and I am tired of it. |
|
As I said before, I am a little embarrassed to admit I followed the case, not religiously, but I paid attention.
I was pleased with the verdict, find the penalty more of a life saver for Scott in the short term (general population would have shortened his life span greatly)
But enough is enough!! It's over!! Can we please not hear the same shit over and over and over please!
I think the media is addicted to this case, they are afraid to move on. ENOUGH ALREADY!!

10. Makes one sick they are so happy about it. |
|
It is a sad thing for every one and he should sit in jail for ever. I do not see death as pay back. The person who did it is gone and every one has to live with what he did, He should have to live with it. On top of that you have made the people of the state do to him just what you said he should die for. It is back wards thinking to me.

11. I am sick of the whole case. Crossfire covering it? I stopped |
|
watching it because it has become a comedy show and no one does comedy as well as Jon Stewart. Some fellow named Abrams on MSNBC has made a career of this case. I have not followed this case, but after hearing some of the jurors after the case closed, I would think an appeal would be in order. The reason they gave for giving him the death penalty was that he showed no emotion. That was one hell of a reason to sentence someone to death.

13. Overkill on this story, please stop |
|
This story was not that interesting to start with and is being runned into the ground. I hope that the coverage will stop soon and begin focusing on real news.
