Wow did anybody else just see that? Wow... I've never witnessed anything like that on live tv before. It's gonna go viral, and their popularity will now rise... Starting now.
I'm all for putting the lowdown tactics of the media in check, but in this instance Talib Kweli was wrong! I have to give credit where credit is due. Don Lemon, Van Jones, and the rest of the guys have done an excellent job of reporting on this particular event. That may not always be the case....but on this one, they have been on point. Don Lemon interrupted because it's natural to interrupt and want to defend yourself when someone is not telling the story right. If I was Don, I would have reacted the exact same way. Talib Kweli made a fool of himself!
Glad a senior member posted the link. Poster #1 - just joined today, Poster #2 - just joined today (and likely the same person). The filter's for new posters probably prevented a virus from being posted.

Doesn't matter what happens it's already been decided by many:
1. MB was gunned down while surrendering with his hands in the air.
2. And the mainstream media refuses to tell the "real story" which is whatever people like this rapper want it to be.
It really is amazing.
No doubt if someone decides to come forward today and says they saw the cop shoot MB while he was on his knees with his hands raised above his head it would be taken as truth.

Talib has been blowing up Twitter for days about Ferguson. I am not surprised that he is there. He definitely checked Lemon!!
Yeah he claimed he was roughed up. Lemon is such a wuss.
I lost all respect for Don Lemon when immediately after MB's death, he sided with MB's family. Total and complete bias. It's embarrassing to see a journalist behave that way.
