One important fact from Ferguson is being grossly underreported

In the media's breathless rush to fill the airwaves with anything that fits their narrative about what happened in Ferguson, one critical bit of information is being grossly underreported.

According to the grand jury transcripts seven black citizens of Ferguson came forward to give testimony that corroborated the testimony of Officer Wilson.

Think about it. A black man had just been shot by a white police officer. The dead man's body was unconscionably left uncovered on the street for four hours before it was removed. Tensions are high. The dead man's friend, as well as other self-serving liars, have given false testimony saying that Michael Brown had surrendered and was on his knees with his hands up saying "don't shoot."

Yet 7 black people of exceptional character and integrity stepped forward to tell the truth, regardless of how they may or not feel about the police. What mattered most to them was the truth, something that's supposed to matter most to all of us, but seldom does to so many people.

And of course the media are hardly mentioning this since it conflicts with their narrative of what happened and would lead to a decrease in viewership.

To those seven black citizens, I commend you.
