Letter: Let courts, not the media, decide

Friday, Nov. 28, 2003 | 3:57 a.m.

WEEKEND EDITION Nov. 29 - 30, 2003

The media should stop focusing on certain sports or theatrical figures like they are icons. Lately, with so many high-profile cases ending up in court, fans always jump the gun by concluding that their idol is innocent of any crime.

A person should never be judged no matter what the circumstance until all the facts are known. This means everyone on national news, including celebrities, should clam up. Our court system will make the decision.
