Being Seen As A Litigious Clotheshorse Is Probably Good PR For Marion Barry

Sorry Fox, it's obviously not just you. Last week I chastised your network for airing a video of Congressman John Conyers during a story about Congressman William Jefferson. ABC's World News did almost the same thing last night when they showed footage of disgraced (but still kicking as a city councilman) ex-DC mayor Marion "Bitch Set Me Up" Barry instead of Roy L. Pearson, the man suing his dry cleaner for millions for losing his pants.

I say it's almost the same thing because John Conyers was innocent, and his likeness was being associated with scandal-plagued Jefferson. In ABC's case, they probably already had the Barry footage queued to report on the politician's DUI acquittal yesterday. Also, both Barry and Pearson are bald, DC-natives, and completely imbalanced. It happens.
