The Media

Yesssssssssss! This blog is directed at you guys! Yes you! You know who you are! The Media! The columnist, reporters, and writers! This blog entry is for you guys! There are two divisions in the media, the people that report the truth and nothing more, and the people who report lies to justify a certain situation. I have respect for the members of the media who do their jobs and report the truth! But I can't stand the members of the media who report information and lies that are simply untrue. I'm not pointing fingers at anybody, but chances are if your reading this, then you know its directed at you.

Now I use to be the type of person that never had sympathy for individuals who accused the media of distorting their image. Now that I become a victim of cheap shots, propaganda, and the whole nine, I see that the media can make you or break you! But you have to stay true to yourself, because you know whats real and whats untrue!!! And that's all I can do, because I know whats going on, my family does, my coaches do, and anybody that really knows Donovan Edwards knows whats real and whats untrue!!!!!

In conclusion this whole situation is really hilarious to me! To see how media outlets will drag one student-athlete's name through the dirt, to make themselves and the people there reporting to feel better. Well if it makes you guys sleep better at night, hey I'll be the target, throw whatever cheap shots you want at me!

Oh yea check out this video! Chris Rock talks about the media and Blacks! Nothing relevant to my situation really, but i find it funny! Start at 5:10 in the video, otherwise watch the whole thing! It's hilarious!!!!!!!
