Juries love Norm Pattis, a smooth talking man with a ponytail. He's been defending Fotis Dulos, a man accused of wrongdoing in the disappearance of his wife Jennifer. There's a girlfriend. Debt. Marital discord. Jennifer's expressed fears to her friends. It doesn't look good for Fotis. Mother-of-five Jennifer's body has never been found. Fotis moved on with a new woman and can't understand how his wife just vanished out of thin air. Fotis and his girlfriend were both arrested. Fotis eventually tried to kill himself in his garage with his car engine running. He died several days later in the hospital where attorney Pettis says media predators kept trying to sneak into his room. The ponytail lawyer broke the news that Fotis

When we were clueless, the dark days of cruel comedy
Today's Cancel Culture would blow a fuse trying to erase the careers of anyone involved in these 1970s sketches by the famed National Lampoon comedy troupe. Nat Lamp aired a syndicated weekly radio show in the 70s. Many of their most popular segments were later sold on albums. Here's one that would never see the light of day in this enlightened world. In the recording posted above, John Belushi interviews the very gay Charles Bronson (Christopher Guest), Clint Eastwood (Chevy Chase), and Lee Marvin (Steven Collins). Heads would explode in 2020 if comedians released this stinging mockery of LGBTQ people. But in the 1970s, being gay earned derision at the very least and violence at the very worst. In a separate sketch, Guest plays
PILOTS AND DECISIONS: why not turn back? why not ask for instrument guidance safely to a nearby airport? Here’s the radar track of Kobe Bryant’s helicopter.
The first question to ask about the helicopter flight that killed Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gigi, and seven other souls is why on earth there was only one pilot on board? Surely Kobe has an insurance policy that REQUIRES him to employ two pilots for safety purposes. Fog is usually not a problem by simply adding a few hundred additional feet of altitude. Why didn't pilot Ara Zobayan ask for a higher clearance if fog was the issue? That aircraft has a service ceiling well beyond the level of fog. A pilot's primary motto is "altitude is my friend." Got trouble? Contact air traffic control or announce on a unicom frequency (a universal frequency for all unmonitored aircraft)
SPOONERISM OUTRAGE: an MSNBC host mashup of Knicks and Lakers stirs Cancel Culture
Earlier today, while reporting on the tragic news of Kobe Bryantâs passing, I unfortunately stuttered on air, combining the names of the Knicks and the Lakers to say âNakers.â Please know I did not & would NEVER use a racist term. I apologize for the confusion this caused.— Alison Morris (@AlisonMorrisNOW) January 26, 2020 The Cancel Culture is coming for MSNBC host Alison Morris. She mangled her words on a broadcast today, mashing together "Knicks" and "Lakers" while referring to the shocking death of Kobe Bryant. Many people think she intentionally uttered the N-word, a ludicrous take but - on Twitter - it is somehow given credence. Here let me slow it down for you. Sheâs clearly NOT saying Nakers. She said
