I heard Rev Jackson's comments tonight and didn't hear him distance himself from Sharpton. We'll see if they appear together tomorrow at the rally in Miami.
Again, the thread is about Trayvon Martin, not Al Sharpton.

Wrong. Go back to the first post. This thread is about how the media coverage of the event. Al Sharpton is now a commentator for MSNBC, a news channel so far to the left in its coverage that it makes Fox News seem fair and balanced.
BTW, can you imagine how Sharpton and his ally Jesse Jackson would be reacting if the races of the shooter and deceased were reversed and you had the media and white demonstrators clamoring for the arrest of a black man on the basis of the sketchy public evidence indicating that Zimmerman committed a crime?
