[Messengers]Zero-Effort Journalism

Body

<< There's definitely a media bias towards cars and road rage as though they

are natural elements of the modern world and bicyclist are freaks (notice

the first sentence mentioned he was a bike messenger before even saying he

was on a bike) who shouldn't be on the road.>>



Which is typically ironic, because Chris hasn't been a bike messenger in

years. I'm convinced all journalists brains turn off the second they start

writing about cyclists.--A



From Dale: "The Joe Woods memorial moved to Mission Rock for part two. It was

in

transit this incident occurred. I rode with Jenis' Dennis and she stopped at

her house before going to Mission Rock. I was stopped upon arrival at the

Mission Rock part by Bob McAndrews and Grady to tell me of what happened. No

one knew for sure what was Chris's fate at this time. Some speculated that he

was dead. I kept saying that we needed to

go to S. F. General. Finally Wayne Green, Esther, Anthony, Jenis' and I went

to General. The head nurse came in to tell us that they worked on him for 45

minutes and he never regained consciousness. He received two pints of blood

and was pronounced dead. After a while we all went to see the body. They

unzipped the body bag and only revealed his head. Severe trauma to the rest

of his body prevented us from seeing more. I lost it after seeing him."
