From Canadian Press<\/a>:<\/p>\n NEWARK, N.J. – Lawyers defending Jayson Williams in a manslaughter case are seeking details about a racial slur made by a prosecution investigator against the black former NBA star.<\/p>\n The lawyers, in a court filing, said the Hunterdon County Prosecutor’s Office only recently revealed the slur, and that lawyers could have used it to discredit the prosecution case during the first trial for Williams.<\/p>\n Williams faces a retrial next year on a manslaughter charge in the shooting of a hired driver in 2002. Williams was convicted in 2004 of attempting to cover up the slaying but was acquitted of the more serious charge of aggravated manslaughter.<\/p>\n Jurors were unable to reach a verdict on the reckless manslaughter count, voting 8-4 in favour of acquittal, leading to a retrial on that single count.<\/p>\n Based on what the details show, Williams will consider seeking a new trial on the counts he was convicted of, his lawyers said in the filing.<\/p>\n Williams, 39, remains free on bail and has yet to be sentenced on the four cover-up convictions.<\/p>\n His wife, Tanya Young Williams, told The Post the prosecutor’s office was shielding a racist. "Consequently, my husband was denied his constitutional right to a fair trial. I am outraged and saddened by this enormous turn of events," she said.<\/p>\n Former first assistant prosecutor Steven C. Lember, who tried Williams in 2004 with assistant prosecutor Katharine Errickson, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that he knew of an internal affairs investigation regarding the investigator but was never given any details or a report. Lember said his former boss, Hunterdon Prosecutor J. Patrick Barnes, had the information.<\/p>\n The slain driver, Costas Christofi, 55, had driven some of Williams’ friends to a restaurant following a Harlem Globetrotters basketball game, then back to Williams’ estate in Hunterdon County early on Valentine’s Day 2002.<\/p>\n Witnesses at the first trial testified that during a tour of the house, Williams took a 12-gauge shotgun from a case and snapped it closed. The gun fired once, striking Christofi in the chest. The defence has maintained the shooting was an accident and that Williams panicked afterward.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n I thought Greg Gutfeld was gay but according to Wikipedia he’s married to a woman<\/a>:<\/p>\n After graduating, he interned at The American Spectator<\/a><\/em>, as an assistant to R. Emmett Tyrrell<\/a>. He then got his first full-time job as a staff writer at Prevention<\/a><\/em> magazine. In 1995<\/a>, he became a staff writer at Men’s Health<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n He was promoted to editor-in-chief of Men’s Health<\/em> in 1999. In 2000, he was replaced by David Zinczenko<\/a>, and became editor-in-chief of Stuff<\/a><\/em>. At Stuff<\/em> he increased the circulation from 750,000 to 1.2 million. In 2003 he became head of "brand development" at Dennis Publishing<\/a>.<\/p>\n He helmed Maxim Magazine<\/a> in the UK<\/a> from 2004 to 2006. However, Gutfeld’s contract expired without renewal after losses in readership under his tenure. His final year at Maxim saw a loss of about 40,000 readers; he was replaced by Derek Harbinson.<\/p>\n Since February 5<\/a>, 2007<\/a> he has been host of the Fox News late-night program Red Eye w\/ Greg Gutfeld<\/em>.<\/p>\n He has been a contributor to the website The Huffington Post<\/a><\/em> since its launch, and currently also blogs at his own site, "The Daily Gut". Frequent targets of Gutfeld’s sarcasm include his Huffington Post<\/em> colleagues Deepak Chopra<\/a>, Cenk Uygur<\/a> and Arianna Huffington<\/a>.<\/p>\n He has authored two books, including "The Scorecard" for Henry Holt<\/a>, and is currently working on a book about England for Simon and Schuster. He also writes a monthly column called "From the Gut" in The American Spectator<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n I learned on Tuesday night’s show that the economy’s decline has reduced the number of breast jobs.<\/p>\n Reason magazine senior editor Kerry Howley was on the show. She’s way hotter than Matt Welch and almost as hot as Nick Gillespie. She’s funnier than both.<\/p>\n According to Reason.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kerry Howley is a senior editor of Reason, the libertarian monthly named one of "The 50 Best Magazines" three out of the past four years by the Chicago Tribune. Established in 1968 and a four-time finalist for National Magazine Awards, Reason has a print circulation of 40,000 and won the 2005 Western Publications Association "MAGGIE" Award for best political magazine. Reason Online, the magazine’s Web edition, draws 1.75 million visits per month, and the staff weblog Hit & Run has been named by Playboy, Washingtonian, and others as one of the best political blogs. <\/em><\/p>\n She first came to the magazine in 2003 as the Burton C. Gray Memorial Intern. After her stint at Reason<\/em>, she moved to Southeast Asia as a reporter for the Myanmar Times and Business Review<\/em>, a privately owned newspaper based in Yangon. There she covered the United Nations and development issues until returning to Reason<\/em> as a permanent staff member in 2005. Howley’s work has appeared in The Los Angeles Times<\/em>, The Dallas Morning News<\/em>, Newsday<\/em>, Reader’s Digest<\/em>, and The New York Sun<\/em>, and she has been a guest on NPR’s On the Media<\/em> and Fox News’ Red Eye<\/em>.

She lives in Washington D.C.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n I was shocked to see an ad during the Fox News show for the porn satellite channel TEN. It was a hilarious ad. A young man is making out with his girlfriend when the video store leaves a message on his machine that various salacious titles are overdue.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I hate it when that happens.<\/p>\n I remember when I was 20, I was leafing through a Penthouse magazine in a convenience store when a young attractive female reporter at the Auburn Journal (with whom I sat through many Auburn city council meetings) caught me and landed a stinging one-liner.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A great line from Tuesday night’s Red Eye program on Fox.
