• Amy Pascal Stepping Down as Sony Co-Chair, Will Head In-House Venture

    Amy Pascal leaving Sony seemed pretty inevitable thanks to the hacking scandal that is still affecting the entertainment company on a daily basis. It was Pascal's slanderous emails being leaked, according to the "New York Times," that first clued everyone in to the fact that there had been a breach, and while her negative comments may have been typed in brief moments of frustration, they have done a real job on her reputation. It was confirmed today, Feb. 5, that Pascal would be stepping down as Sony co-chairman but remain with the company as the head of a new in-house venture.

  • Petition Filed by National Bar Association to Strip Darren Wilson of Badge in Missouri

    About a week after learning that he would not be indicted for the Aug. 9 shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown, Darren Wilson ironed out the details and resigned from the Ferguson Police Department. Wilson agreed with the department that it is in everyone's best interest that he not serve and protect in Ferguson again. His being on the streets would only put him as well as other officers at risk. While it seems unlikely that Wilson will patrol anywhere again, he has still retained his badge — and that is something the National Bar Association is not happy about. The country's oldest and largest group of African-American attorneys and judges have filed a nine-page petition requesting that Wilson be completely stripped of his badge. The official petition is requesting that the Missouri Department of Public Safety revoke Wilson's badge. While under oath, Wilson insisted that during his altercation with Brown he had feared for his life, but some naysayers believe the officer got away with murder.
