CNN didn't get the message to wear Black
I'm glad CNN is giving coverage from I'm am disappoined in some of the ignorant comments they are making. Where are the real journalist and reporters ?? It seems like some of the comments and questions they make try to stoke the fires of racisim. Instead of dealing with that people will not tolerate this unjustice and they don't point out that these are just kids.

It has been people of all backgrounds that spread the word of the Jena 6 injustice, and the petitions.

I am up in MN and the majority of the peace community I am with, watch Democracy Now and were supporting the Jena 6 starting at least 2 months ago. The majority of us are white (we are in MN), and many have gone down to help in the Gulf Coast and many of our Vets for Peace marched from Mobile AL to New Orleans to bring light to bombs dropped on Iraq Explode in the Gulf Coast.

I'm glad we have Democracy Now. That can bring maturity and real journalism.

The CNN reporter just said the news was spread by black radio, which it was, but also by news and radio stations of all colors.... Just because it took them 10 months to report on it.. and to interview anyone on.
