Got plenty of links to go with that freshly roasted Honduran coffee... mine that is...
Nafiza "Soulja Girl" Ziyad is asking a judge to drop her charges related to her now infamous freestyle battle with an elderly, gray-haired lady riding MARTA. The defense motion cited in the AJC says the video, which went viral and has been watched over 600,000 times, “exposed her to extreme distress and embarrassment.”
Wait till she sees the REEEMIX:
- Jury deliberations begin in the Brian Nichols case.
- Not all are opposed to Gwinnett County's mandatory recycling program.
- Braves GM Frank Wren busy talking deals on day one of Baseball's winter meetings.
- More Clayton county students could find themselves in single-sex classrooms next year.
- Illinois Guv arrested on corruption charges.
- Five suspected 9/11 planners recant their offer to confess.
- President-elect Obama's plan to bring broadband to the masses is hailed all over, and his web 2.0 press machine is all over it (the praise, that is).
- If media were complicit in hyping the housing bubble that drove the economy in the last five years; are they being complicit in making things seem gloomier than they really are now?
- More Media Briefs: Jay Leno to stay at NBC... Arianna Huffington is IWM's person of the year... Time's top 10 magazine covers of the year.
- Just because: Remember in Back to the Future when Marty McFly goes into Doc Brown's house and the automated robotic arm drops another can of dog food onto Einstein's bowl, which was already overflowing?... Feed your dog with an iPhone.
