Gavin McInnes on the tale of Brooke Astor’s son

June 21, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Via Taki’s Magazine:

I know an insider who has been intimately involved in the case and what is most fascinating about this seven-year trial that has cost the Marshalls $11 million is how few questions the media have asked. They enjoy Photoshopping a snout on Marshall’s wife’s face, so why ruin the fun with facts? Why ask questions when the butler who said Marshall and his wife were the types “not to trust” is suddenly rewarded with extravagant Manhattan property? If journalism weren’t dead, this detail alone would be the scoop of the decade.
