It is Truly Black Tuesday.
It is "Black Tuesday."
Thanks to BobC for the appropriate name for this day.
Even if Ramsey does not win it is still a dark day. Why? Because today John Ramsey should be hanging his head in disgrace instead of being courted by the media.
When Ramsey announced he was running I thought that finally the "watchdog" media would print the truth.
Several people, along with myself, have sent out press releases to the media in regards to www.supportramseyTRUTH.com
In the beginning I spoke to many reporters. Several from national "respectable" publications. They contacted me. Sometimes several times. I held out hope that their interest would result in someone printing the truth.
With the exception of the Gaylord Herald Times, not one reporter printed anything about Ramsey's lies.
Here the press had the perfect opportunity with the JonBenet Ramsey Foundation. It was a total farce that the Ramsey's lied about. A direct reflection on just what type of person John Ramsey really is. Yet the press refused to run with it. In fact, they totally ignored it.
John lied about being exonerated. "nuff said.
John used the federal judge's decision in a boldly unethical way. He leaves the impression that the civil case mattered. The press was presented with the truth about the judges decision and it was ignored.
This was such a golden opportunity for someone to step up to the plate in the media and do the right thing. It didn't happen.
After a flurry of interviews I did in the beginning, things died down. I did do a very extensive interview with a large newspaper just last week. I was so certain this was "THE ONE" that would finally print the truth. Nothing. Nada. Not a word printed about Ramsey's lies.
Yes indeed. It is "Black Tuesday." Instead of John's lies being exposed and slinking off into the sunset he has a real chance at winning.
I swear to God these people must have sold their soul to the devil.tgrif@xmission.com

I am unaware of anyone who's profited from exploiting the Ramsey murder over a longer period of time, with a greater disregard for the principles of accuracy and fairness, than the production team of Mills and Tracey.They truly do inhabit a different moral universe from real journalists. It's the difference between journalism and propaganda.

This is the crap I am talking about.
This is from the Chicago Tribune. You would think this reporter would get his a$$ and take 5 minutes to investigate Ramsey's claims.
JonBenet, 6, was found beaten and strangled in the basement of the family's home in Boulder, Colo., on Dec. 26, 1996.
Boulder police said early on that John Ramsey and his wife, Patsy, were under an "umbrella of suspicion," while the Ramseys insisted an intruder was responsible. The Boulder district attorney took control of the investigation last year and agreed with a federal judge that the "weight of the evidence" was more consistent with the intruder theory.

Damsels in distress
By Alex Johnson
Reporter
MSNBC
Updated: 5:21 p.m. ET July 23, 2004
Shelton Sanders called his father the night of June 19, 2001, to let him know he was driving home later than usual after helping out with planning for a bachelor party. It was the last his father, an influential county magistrate, ever heard from him.
...snip
Two bright, ambitious students at the main state university disappear in the same town, under similar circumstances. One of them becomes “an inescapable name and face,” in the words of The Greenville News. The other is largely forgotten. No one can say why with absolute certainty.
But there is one unavoidable difference between the two cases:
Dail Dinwiddie is a white woman. Shelton Sanders is a black man.
What about everybody else?
It’s the same in the national media, too. Whenever a missing person becomes a continuing news story, she is almost certain to be an attractive white girl or young woman:
Molly Bish. Carly Brucia. Rachel Cooke. Audrey Herron. Polly Klaas. Chandra Levy.
Kristen Modafferi. Kimberley Pandelios. Laci Peterson. JonBenet Ramsey. Audrey Seiler.
Dru Sjodin. Elizabeth Smart. Linda Sobek. Danielle van Dam. Brooke Wilberger.
...snip (emphasis mine)
Rachel Cooke (and some of these other young ladies) has had very little national media and her father has worked his butt off for the local media she has had.
I am unclear why he listed JonBenét Ramsey among missing persons cases. As we know, JonBenét Ramsey was found murdered in the basement of her own home on December 26, 1996. She was initially reported as kidnapped but several experts have stated it is their opinion that the ransom note submitted by the Ramseys was in fact part of the "staging" of JonBenét's murder.
Mr. Johnson wants to chatter about biased media but he is guilty of it himself - big time!
What ever happened to ethics in journalism?
Reporters use to take pride in checking and re-checking their facts. They always made sure their i's were dotted and their t's were crossed before they submitted their stories and they did so and still made their deadlines without the technology we have today. Have we become totally blasé about honesty and integrity as a society today?Never let the children, Elders, the sick, or the infirm be exploited.

Don't be discouraged, guys. It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings. If the fat lady doesn't sing today, she will in a few months.
Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry,

Patsy's gonna sing?
C-R-A-Z-Y...I'm crazy for thinking he'd win...la la laIt's probably too late to get justice for JonBenét. Maybe it always was. But knowing where things went wrong is the first step to not going there again. **-- Alan Prendergast-Dec 21, 2006--**

Given the number of media contacts made by persons on this forum
and by other sources, they are, indeed, informed. I can think
of no reason for declining to print the truth except as stated
above.
WY, I sure do hope you are correct and in a few months, it will
all come out. On the other hand, looks to me like the fat lady
has gone on a diet and no one is going to sing. I sure would love to be mistaken.

I wasn't referring to the case, EW, I was referring to the election. I meant that even if Ramsey wins the primary, he still has to go up against the democratic choice, and I don't think he will win that one.
I agree with you that the case will be solved in another generation. By that time John and Patsy will either be dead or older than dirt.Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry,
the philosophy which does not laugh,
and the greatness which does not bow before children.

We've had a lot of issues on our ballot today...my husband and I cancelled each other's vote out on every candidate and amendment I think. We've never been so divided before. Right after we voted, I swear dozens of people showed . For once we got lucky and had no line. Unbelievable.
I think the voter's in John's district don't really want him...if nothing else they are probably tired of hearing how the public, LE and press have hounded the 'poor' Ramseys. He's not really given any details on his plans if he wins, he spent all his time proclaiming his innocence.

If the authorities in CO don't stop the citizens of Boulder from killing off their children and getting away with it, there won't BE a next generation to take up the issue of justice (without John Edwards' channeling that is).

JonBenet's Dad In Tight Mich. Race
(CBS/AP) John Ramsey, father of slain child beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey, is in a close race with three other Republicans for a state House seat in Michigan, according to a poll taken last week.
Voters go the polls today to decide the winner of the GOP primary. A win in the primary is virtually tantamount to election in the heavily Republican district in northern Michigan.
...snip
The poll's margin of error of plus or minus 5 percentage points meant the four leaders were in a statistical dead heat.
Nearly four in 10 voters said they had an unfavorable impression of Ramsey, while about three in 10 viewed him favorably, Sarpolus said.
...snip
Ramsey says he hasn't sought national media attention and has rejected most interview requests from outside the district. Instead, he has focused on grassroots organizing, fundraising and local issues such as economic growth.
