All I want for Christmas is a pitch pipe
Mariah Carey was three hours late to record her performance for NBC's Rockefeller Center Christmas special on the evening of December 2, 2014. Then she apparently scrapped plans to record her performance altogether, opting to sing on live TV the next night. A live performance prevents post production clean up of any glitches or chances to "sweeten" wobbly audio. Click the video to hear the isolated vocal track from the pop queen's performance. The reviews are not flattering. Carey later apologized on Twitter.

Farrakhan calls for kills, Barkley brings the chill
There's lots of bad information being distributed following a Ferguson, Missouri grand jury's decision not to indict police officer Darren Wilson for shooting Michael Brown, who had just stolen from a convenience store and was confronted by Wilson. An altered version of the middle sign became a sensation on the Internet: ----------------------------------------------- Perhaps the worst response comes from Nation of Islam leader Rev.

Another Louisville quarterback rises at the right moment
University of Louisville football coach Bobby Petrino once again showed his strength in developing quarterbacks when seldom used Kyle Bolin was thrown into the intrastate rivalry game with the University of Kentucky.

Blackless Black Friday
Here's a hilarious parody of Black Friday mashed up with "The Purge." Ben Stiller's production company Red Hour Films creates pieces for the You Tube channel Nacho Punch.

Media content of this nature is heavily sanitized to avoid delivering the reality that all segments of society have both noble and ignoble people. Ever notice how commercials and comedy sketches tend to portray couples as a smart, in-charge woman with a hapless man? In any burglar alarm commercial, which ethnicity is always portrayed as the burglar(s)? Got to be a white guy or the Internet mob would hashtag the advertiser into smoldering ashes. Because of racial sensitivity, Stiller's people had
