I mean, we can all agree that this is some fucked up shit, but has it ruined lives? I'm not saying that it hasn't, but I haven't heard anything about the ("alleged", but let's not kid ourselves) victim-- was she in fact traumatized by being peed on by R. Kelly? I mean, I would be, but who knows?

Hopefully DeRo will report the facts. Any humor or anticipation you eagerly await in that is truly sad. It's life and the only thing that should be expected is the truth.

Apparently the judge wants to ask DeRo if he made a copy off the tape before handing it over to the police. No one ever asked him. Plus, if he does have a copy, he might be on the hook for some charges as a reporters First Amendment rights probably don't extend to child porn according to the judge.

Kelly circus, to hilarious effect. I wouldn't want them to parody the actual event now -- what they've already produced is so imaginative and hilarious, adhering to reality would only dull it.

@Dan Gibson: Will DeRogatis drop a quick review of the new Fleet Foxes disc into his testimony?

On the patented Sound Opinions "Buy It, Burn It, Trash It" scale, I preemptively rate DeRo's testimony "Burn It," cherry-picking only the snarky parts.

Can you imagine what his brilliant satirical mind could do with this material? (to be honest, I feel the same about most of the events of the past few years)
