How Billionaire Robert Smith Avoided Indictment in Multimillion-Dollar Tax Case
You know (and I realize that this comment will be highly controversial), you know, it&#x27;s amazing to me that in this day and age, if someone is rich and&#x2F;or famous and accused of a crime, it&#x27;s amazing to me that the media never seems to give them &quot;Due Process&quot;...<p>&quot;Media Due Process&quot;<p>For lack of a better term...<p>It doesn&#x27;t seem to exist in this day and age.<p>I&#x27;d like to hear <i>the other side of the story</i> before I make up my mind, thank you very much!<p>Until I do, from the accused own&#x27;s mouth, I might add, I&#x27;m going to presume <i>innocent until proven guilty</i>.<p>I will not be &quot;the court of public opinion&quot; in response to the media, any media, slighted one way or slighted the other.<p>I simply refuse.<p>I don&#x27;t know the accused, I don&#x27;t know what happened, and until <i>all</i> of the facts are on the table -- pro and con -- I <i>refuse</i> to make up my mind on the subject.<p>A single set of facts from a single media outlet, or even several -- <i>are not all of the facts</i>, because they could have been <i>cherry-picked</i>, one way or the other...<p>I take this approach; this mindset; with <i>all</i> media in this day and age -- not just the media outlet that broke this story...<p>OK, those are my thoughts.<p>Go ahead and lambaste me if you disagree...
