Very few of the media accurately reports the whole incident. JK claims
that the kid's comment was unscripted and a joke and he personally disagree
with it. But his original question
was racially loaded and subtly manipulative, and the infamous line "kill
everyone in china" was the effect, not the cause.
99% of nonlawyer public would miss the subtle bias. I expected the better
of the journalists, but apparently 99% of journalists also missed the
important cause-effect. http://www.mitbbs.com/article_t/CivilSociety/551.html
