Wikileaks founder Assange granted asylum by Ecuador.
Pretty brilliant of him to pick an Hispanic embassy. We're experts in sneaking people in and out of countries.

^^Holy shit.
I'm a bit confused: it's no admission of guilt to walk away from someone trying to prove something that people have failed to prove for a decade now. And "stripping" someone of past accomplishments one-sidedly just because you can doesn't make you a heroic crusader against performance enhancing drugs, it makes you a sad asshole.
What is it with people wanting to prove that Armstrong was doped? Maybe he was, but the point is that there are no positive tests tied to any of his victories, so tough tits. Maybe he outsmarted everyone, maybe he was really that good.
I hate that Aristotle was right, and everyone who dares stick out of the wheat field is chopped to size with vigour.
And YET ANOTHER shooting. 'MERICA! 'MERICA!
Details including NSFW images.
So if I'm not mistaken (for all the gun lobbyists), that brings the total count of stories where a responsible, well-armed citizen protected people against a madman to uhh.....zero.

Idiots.
I get defending someone's right to publish and speak; I don't get putting yourself and your countrymen at risk because you want to brandish the biggest set of balls.
FOX News apologizes for 'accidentally' airing live suicide after car chase.
Warning, it's fairly graphic...and will probably get pulled...but you can find it. Fucking sad...
Unbelievable - I came across the car chase while flipping channels - watched it for 20 minutes, had to take a phone call so I turned off the TV - never thought it would lead to that.
"We took every precaution we knew how to take to keep that from being on TV."
Ahhhhh no you didn't, you were broadcasting a car chase. It's not the first time this has happened.
I didn't see the big deal about that airing on live tv. Had I not heard of the story before I saw it, I don't know if I would have known he killed himself. Granted, I was watching it on my phone, but it wasn't hugely obvious he had offed himself.
