42. AFROCENTRIC NEWS Network
in TV newsrooms, frustrated police officials and FBI crime stats aren t The media fetish with crime and the public s alone has built 21 new prisons since 1984
http://www.afrocentricnews.com/html/ofari_tv_news.html
Welcome To The Afrocentric News Network TV News Fuels Crime Fears
By Earl Ofari Hutchinson, Ph.D

Earl Ofari Hutchinson
The recent FBI report that crime rates have plunged seven years in a row should be cause for great joy. But many police officials instead have expressed frustration that much of the public still doesn't believe they have. He blamed the media for fueling public perceptions that crime still rages and criminals lurk behind every street lamp. But for many who call the shots in TV newsrooms, frustrated police officials and FBI crime stats aren't likely to change how they present crime news. They've spent the past two decades turning TV- crime verite into a sure fire formula for ratings. That formula is ridiculously simple. Just have helicopters and mobile camera crews hover over or roam around city streets looking for police car chases, dead bodies, gang shoot-outs, and drug busts. And most importantly, make sure those city streets are in black and Latino neighborhoods. The formula is bloody, exploitative, and racist. But it is a smash success. It has hooked so many Americans on the murder and mayhem nightly news broadcasts that the networks have spun off a legion of hybrid clones. These shows simulate live-action crime chases and busts and worse they almost always depict blacks and Latinos as violent criminals. This has convinced many white suburbanites that their lives are at grave risk from violence-prone, drugged out Latinos and African-Americans.

PRAISED GOALS / MISPLACED BLAME Reader Comment By Jon Marc Taylor Bio/Address "Our nation is grappling with a college cost crisis that is threatening to push higher education out of reach for low-income and middle-income students," states Rep. Howard "Buck" Mckeon (R-CA). "This is unacceptable," pontificates the chairman of the House subcommittee on higher education. A noble sentiment that is myopically addressed. In typical symptomatic buck-passing, Mckeon has again (trying since at least 1998) introduced a section in the Affordability in Higher Education Act that Ignores the essential cause of the crisis and instead would establish a "college affordability index" as the Commissariat’s central planning solution. This index would co-spare a school's tuition increases to the period's Consumer Price index (CPI). Institutions' tuition and fee increases that more than doubled the CPI rate would have to design plans to reduce the increases, or would be placed on "collage affordability alert" status ( id est double secret probation). Those colleges and universities that fail to improve their ratios would become ineligible for federal work-study and other various campus-based financial aid grants for their students.

Since then, we've responded to new technology by downsizing , not timesizing . We're running/ruining the economy with a surplus of labor instead of a surplus of jobs and confident consumers. We talk a lot about education while offering little job training . Result? We've made it easier to earn a dishonest living than an honest ). First, consider this story -

Katz calls the city’s crime stats an ‘epidemic The Republican would fight crime by bringing together the s office, the court system and the county prisons.
http://www.northeasttimes.com/2003/0828/katz.html
By Tom Waring
Times Staff Writer
The mayoral election is a little more than two months away, and the police department is assigning officers to 12-hour shifts.
Are the extra patrols a way of cutting the violent crime rate before the election, helping Street edge Republican Sam Katz?
The Street campaign said crime has dropped 20 percent since the mayor took office in January 2000.
Fee said Katz would kill Operation Safe Streets, which floods crime hot spots with a massive police presence. So far, police have shut down 300 open-air drug corners.
FOP vice presidents Jim Wheeler and John McNesby and recording secretary Bob Ballentine joined Fee at the news conference.
Katz worries that the city is blowing the $100 million it has earmarked for Safe Streets as part of a five-year plan. Already, the city has spent $53 million on police overtime a little more than a year into the program.
Operation Safe Streets is working, Katz said, in areas where officers are concentrated. Drug dealers, though, are not stupid, he said.
The challenger wants to build a new state prison in Philadelphia.

One-Stop Shopping for the Crime News Junkie
New York startup APBnews.com is an intriguing mix of tabloid flash and in-depth reporting on serious criminal-justice issues
What would the world be like if dogs could sing? How about if Santa really told nasty boys and girls they could have no presents? And what would the world look like if The New York Post had a brain?
Actually, I know the answer to the last one: The New York Post with a brain would look a lot like APBnews.com. It's the Web's home for true crime and for intelligent discussion of criminal-justice issues two things that, distressingly, are rarely found in the same place in a tabloid culture. And true to the crusading character APBnews often ascribes to law-enforcement types, APBnews is ready to tilt at a few windmills of its own. The year-old New York startup that runs the site is locked in a battle with the Committee on Financial Disclosure of the federal Judicial Conference, which this week denied APB's request for copies of the public financial disclosure records of all federal judges, which APBnews had planned to post on the Web.
