You have got to be the most biased, uninformed journalist I have ever seen. Do some research and stop disgracing the profession of journalism. Try reporting “fact” instead of your slanted ignorant opinion.
Royal:
The comment was 34 words long and simply recounted the facts of the story with a link to see a more detailed version. Maybe your quibble is with Professor Turley’s assertion that tasering can cause coronary problems. Here’s a link to answer your concerns:

P.S. I don’t think Professor Turley ever said he was a journalist. In essence, he’s a commentator and his mission is not to report the facts but to analyze them.
