The 16 year old that got off the hook for killing several people while he was drunk driving, is now facing 5 different civil lawsuits from the families of his victims.  Oxy College is tackling sexual assault by allowing alleged victims to report the crime anonymously.  A men’s rights group is completely against it, so they tried to prove their point by filing multiple different false charges through the system.  Although Cenk is against what this men’s group has been doing, he’s also against the college’s tactic. One of the stars of the show Duck Dynasty responded to a question about gay sex.  He pointed out that a vagina is so much more desirable than an anus.  The Obama Admin is sending 2 openly gay athletes to Russia as part of the American delegation instead of sending the President and VP, the way it normally goes.  A group of environmentalists got arrested in Russia and have been granted amnesty if they were convicted of another crime.  This is good news for Pussy Riot members that were arrested.  Target has decided not to sell Beyonce’s new album since she released her album digitally on Friday.  It also turns out that selling an album without the CD is environmentally friendly.  Look for TYT Announcements from Ambassador Jeni here: http://bit.ly/TYTForum
