And the NY Post?

I've lived in New York City. I've read the Post. I don't know anyone who considers the Post anything more than a sleezy rag that prints stories of questionable taste and veracity.

Whether or not THIS story is true, and it may well be, it's still trash -- and again, I wish that people would just let Ms. Houston rest in peace.

But, yes, you certainly have the right to post it here. Just as I have the right to point out how low-class the story is.

As I said upthread, when an actual news network posts a story here (not you posting a link to a story), I'll be more than happy to tell them it's not news.
If this is not news then why did NYpost post the article? Then I quess this is not news about City-Data forum members quoted in NY Post is not news either.

I don't recall anyone referring to the NY Post story (in which CD members were quoted) as "News:"

You know what? You can try to defend this all you want, but the Whitney Houston story is tasteless and classless. She's dead, and it's simply tacky to print stories like this when she can't defend herself. Shame on all the sleezy rags who are printing this trash.

But you have every right to post it here.
