Suge Knight -- Bench Warrants Issued for Rap Icon's Arrest | TMZ.com
John Butts@JBMedia - Reports:
Suge Knight is a wanted man in California ... again ... TMZ has learned, TWO separate warrants have once again been issued for his arrest, stemming from a couple alleged joyrides with a bum license.
Knight had two hearings this month regarding both cases -- one from 2011 and one from 2012 -- when cops busted him driving on a suspended license ... but we're told he blew both off.
Bench warrants were subsequently issued for each case -- both for $20,000.

No Surprise Here: Stacey Dash Tweets Supports For Paula Deen | WOLB Talk 1010
No Surprise Here: Stacey Dash Tweets Supports For Paula Deen | WOLB Talk 1010
John Butts@JBMedia - Reports:
As previously reported by NewsOne, Deen was fired by ‘The Food Network’ after admitting to using the racial slur “ni**er” and plantation fantasies about having Black men dress in white shorts and bow-ties to serve food at a wedding reception.
Lisa Jackson, a former general manager of Bubba’s Oyster and Seafood House in Savannah, Georgia, alleged in a lawsuit that she experienced emotional distress after being racially and sexually harassed in the workplace.
The restaurant is co-owned by Deen and her brother Bubba Hiers.
Though Deen denied the charges, she admitted to using the racial slur after allegedly being robbed by a Black man.
During the ensuing fallout, Deen has also been dropped by Wal-Mart, Target, Diabetes drug maker Novo Nordisk, Caesars Entertainment and Smithfield Foods.
Deen has not been without some unlikely supporters and unexpected sympathizers and rationalizers. They include Rev. Al Sharpton, who said she shouldn’t be judged on using a racial slur in her past, Dr. Boyce Watkins, who in an appearance on CNN’s AC360 argued that Deen’s age and environment should be taken into account when judging her; Roland Martin, who argued that Black people should be just as upset when other Black people use the n-word as racist White people; and Bill Maher, who defended Deen‘s use of the word “ni**er” by declaring it freedom of speech on par with Hip-Hop music.
Today, Rev. Jesse Jackson joined in and said that Deen shouldn’t be a “sacrificial lamb.”http://wolbbaltimore.com/2004350/no-surprise-here-stacey-dash-tweets-supports-for-paula-deen/

John Butts@JBMedia - Reports:
On Sunday, Democratic candidates again seized on the opportunity to criticize the mayor.
"Suggesting we could have more stops of blacks and Latinos is a slap in the face," said Public Advocate Bill de Blasio. Former U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner said: "It just shows that the mayor doesn't quite understand and he needs to try to show some understanding to the people who have these legitimate complaints."http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424127887324436104578578083038725610.html?ru=yahoo?mod=yahoo_itp
