Like Ann Rice always described white guys as "handsome" or the like and minorities were always "imposing" or something. Anyone else ever notice that or am I imagining things?

Not coming to his defense, but didn't they also darken O.J.'s cover picture
on Time Magazine I think it was, once he was arrested, after that slow mo
car chase?
In this story I think A*O touched on some serious points: both
parents are physicians/specialists. How bad does it look (for their
future practices) if THEIR (medical) negligence lead to their
daughter's death? I so hope they have nothing to do with it, but
- although everybody reacts differently under stress and grief -
I just cannot feel for them for no particular reason.....
