Thank you so much for this podcast. The truth is nearly always so much better than fiction. And what our media gave us was a complete fiction. It's clear to me that not only the press and the public, but the legal system as well got caught up in a mob reaction that was started and maintained by the fictional scenario given us by the press and social media. There is nothing more poisonous, more destructive, than a human mob. This incident should have never, ever become a news story. It should have been handled discreetly and quietly, then dismissed. That this didn't happen illustrates the tremendous destructive power of social media - and what has become its echo chamber: mainstream media. Shame on the journalists, police, judge, the public, and her employer. And shame on Mr. Cooper for not being forthcoming about what really happened, instead preferring to play the victim and get a measure of fame and even money for shamefully allowing this mob action to proceed.
