good example of gutter journalism !

They could have stated it a bit more professional.

Talk about not having respect for the dead.
 
Or anything.

This thread is a typical example of gutter-threading.
 
When discussing something it helps if you let people know wtf ure discussing.
 
lol but he was left without a pants...hoooo we have an AWB membah!

why then did Beeld have to report that the attackers pulled down the late ET's pants?

Here's the headline : ET sonder broek gelos

****ing sick. Good example of making profit out of other people's grief ...

do you want them to cover the murder up? how about saying suddenly he died in his sleep? huh? would that be better for you?

how about the girl whose hands got chopped of, should they only have said that she was murdered? was that bit a bit too gruesome for you to stomach?

I'm not saying cover up his murder - just more professional journalism.

Dude, as long as its factual, then its cool. They are reporting on a detail of the murder. Its the guys that killed ET that are distasteful...

know that and agree with you - but they could have phrased the headline better ...

shows the true level of journalism in SA.
 
Dweezil you realize papers are there to make money right? If they did not report this sort of thing people would not buy their papers. So instead of bitching about it just accept that is their business and it will never change.

As alfa says if this malema the jokes would be in every single post and you would all be laughing at malema's expense. Remember when that chick who spoke about garlic and what not, i forget her name, everyone made jokes about her. Funny now a white man dies and people think making jokes is not right.

shows a lack of compassion. Kinda gross that people find joy in the death of another human being.

He's a hardcore bigot racist, deserves no respect imo!

hey man - nobody deserved to die as ET did. Even though I didn't agree with his political views - one should show some kind of respect towards the dead.

de mortuis nil nisi bonum dicendum est - speak no ill of the dead.

I don't see anything wrong with reporting the truth. Why pull down his pants? Is it a black cultural thing? Animals!
