Quick editorial note

I want to make a quick observation about this situation and some of the ridiculous coverage of it.

In America, despite cries to the contrary, the average bias of the media is socially liberal with a strong bias towards pro-Corporate coverage and "neoconservative" on foreign policy issues. I don't know why anyone would argue otherwise.

As the incredible popularity of extreme conservatives like Bill O'Reilly and Glenn Beck indicates, there is a huge market for this right wing bile.

I believe the murder of Sparkman will serve as a flashpoint of attention on the extreme rhetoric of the right in this country. For months Beck and his ilk have been spewing paranoid assertions about Obama, healthcare, the Federal government and the 2010 Census.

Do we KNOW Sparkman's murderers were inspired by Beck's hate, or Michael Savage's hate, or Rush Limbaugh's hate? We do not.

Are any of the theories for the motivation of this murder MORE believable than the idea it was a rightwinger inspired by anti-government venom? Such as - drug dealers operating a secret lab or weed plot killing Sparkman when he stumbled on their SECRET operation, then ritualistically murdering him, writing FED on his body, and displaying the body prominently in an area where it would be found, therefore drawing NATIONAL federal attention to the area?

I'm sorry - the idea that it was drug dealers who SILENCED Sparkman to keep their operation SECRET and then DISPLAYED the body in this matter is STUPID.

This is either some gruesome serial killer (and that idea is farfetched) or it was a political theory.

While debate is welcome (feel free to debate it here on my site) I think it's more and more obvious how and why Sparkman died.

My primary goal for this site is to solve this crime. The majority of the posts will concern the FACTS of this case, not supposition.

I just wish everyone would focus on the FACTS - and not FANTASIES about "druggies" and "serial killers."

We will see justice done for Bill Sparkman and his family.
