It's surprising that many people are so quick to believe the most bizarre things, among them the current scandal involving the owner of the Clippers basketball team. He allegedly said, in a phone call with his mistress, that she should not bring black people to his games. First of all, she is black herself and he is or was sleeping with her, so-- huh?Digging around, I found one pertinent fact hidden under the mania now sweeping the Internet and giving everyone a new person to hate, just like back in grade school: According to the NBA commissioner investigating the case, “We do know that the woman on the tape – who we believe released it to TMZ – is the defendant in a lawsuit brought by the Sterling family alleging that she embezzled more than $1.8 million, who told Mr. Sterling that she would ‘get even.'"
While I know almost nothing about way too much, I listened to that tape and it sure sounded phony to me. And I do know from first-hand experience that so much of "the truth" online is completely manufactured. (I did really write this, however.)
I just listened to some of it . . and you are -- right there -- are strange --pauses -- in --the -- middle of words thatmake --it -- seem like the --pieces were edited to--geth--er
