VIA CNN – Practically every journalist covering the death of Michael Brown would like to interview Darren Wilson, the police officer who shot and killed Brown.

In the pursuit of that interview, several high-profile television anchors have secretly met with Wilson, according to sources at several TV networks. All of the meetings were off the record, meaning the anchors could not describe what was said.
These meetings are a normal part of the TV guest booking process, but they’re significant in this case because Wilson has not been seen in public since Brown’s death in Ferguson, Missouri on August 9.
Among the anchors who have met with Wilson are Matt Lauer of NBC, George Stephanopoulos of ABC, Scott Pelley of CBS, and Anderson Cooper and Don Lemon of CNN.
It is unclear if Wilson, through his representatives, has agreed to be interviewed by any of the journalists.
Shortly after I named the anchors on my CNN media program “Reliable Sources” on Sunday morning, something happened that I was not expecting: Cooper and Lemon confirmed on Twitter that the meetings had taken place. (continue reading)

Don’t do this. Don’t fall for this. Don’t even put yourself in the position of thinking this is in any way prudent.
If you are in the room with someone who suggests it’s a good idea – LEAVE. 
Change your fundamental paradigm.  You are no longer a member of a society ruled by principle or law.  This is the fundamental change.  You are a flea looking into a thermonuclear furnace…. 
There is no-one on this list, or any list, connected to ANY New York, DC or regional TV or print outlet who will provide you any fair consideration for your position. 
None, zero, nada, zippo and zilch, who will put their entire career at risk by even remotely allowing you, through them, to frame a narrative which might put you in a favorable light.
They will not do it.
Ever.
Stop trying to reconcile that it’s even possible, it’s not.  And, if you find yourself in the same room with a person -you’ve known your entire life- who begins to sound like they may be approaching the conversation from a place of possibility, LEAVE. 
Media pundits, talkers and interviewers, are but one piece of the puzzle of manipulation. There are producers, editors and entire teams of people inside the legacy media machine who will work diligently to frame THEIR chosen narrative, not yours.  Media executives and executive boards who have a vested interest that is diametrically in opposition to you.
Period.
Every intonation, optic, inflexion, expression and syntax will be maneuvered in such a way as to provide the best possible outcome for THEIR narrative, not yours. The position of your body, the lighting, the camera angles, the height of the armrest, the depth of the seat cushion, the ambient sound created by the type of floor covering will be constructed for a specific reason; none of it favorable to you.
The placement and order of verbs, adjectives, nouns and conjunctures will be controlled to permit the maximum manipulation, and editing, of storyline. None of it done in benefit to you, toward you, or aimed in the direction from which you exist.
At the core of their being THEY HATE YOU.  They don’t sympathize with what’s happened to you, they hate you.   They created everything that’s happened to you, and in most cases they added exponential fuel to insure your destruction. 
The media hate everything you stand for. They hate every conversation your parents ever had with you at the dinner table. Your outlook on life is the antithesis of their beliefs.  They don’t just dislike you, they DESPISE YOU.  
In the scope of all things beneficial to you……  You would find more self-benefit hammering railroad spikes through your own testicles than entering the same media universe controlled by the legacy media institutions and their co-horts.
You have no frame of reference to understand the scope, size and magnanimous scale of the forces against you, nor do you understand the depth of professional deception these people are skilled in.
