A Most Disgusting Newspaper

What is it with they print media that they think they have the right to destroy lives and not pay a price?

Most Americans are familiar with Carson King. He's the 24 year old who attend ESPN's College Game Day in Ames, Iowa a week and a half ago. King had a sign asking for a donation of six dollars to buy a six pack of Busch Light. Over the course of this time he has raised over a million dollars by receiving matching funds from A-H among others.

In lieu of buying beer King announced he would donate the money to the Children's Hospital in Iowa City. Even though an Iowa State fan he stated, "It doesn't matter if you're a Cyclone, a Hawkeye or a fan of the Grandview Vikings in Des Moines. We're all in this together".

Enter the once excellent Des Moines Register. One of their reporters ran a hit piece on the kid. This 'reporter' went back into his twitter account from when King was sixteen. He came across two racist jokes the high school sophomore had put on it.

What a jerk! There has never been a person in all of mankind with an IQ over 90 who has not told some kind of racist joke. Eskimos tell racist jokes. I would hope the Register checks the twitter accounts of all their employees to assure us they are as clean as the driven snow. Wait! It gets worse. The clown who wrote the story, Aaron Calvin, had his twitter background checked and he, too, had racist jokes on it. The Register announced, according to the National Review, they are checking into his background. He and all the editorial staff deserves bad karma. As proof in various tweets between 2010-2013 Calvin used the N word numerous times, used homophobic language and expressed a desire to read sex scenes to high school kids. Reads to me like he has a Jeff Epstein problem. Oh yeah, he had another tweet, f--- all cops! He's a real journalistic dandy.

There's another group who should be likewise embarrassed and that's corporate Anheuser-Busch. In order to cover their butts they felt the need to cut loose Carson King.

In my opinion the only value of holding the Register in my hand is to wipe my rear end.
