The Young Turks: April 28, 2014

Clippers owner Donald Sterling is in hot water after multiple audio recordings of him espousing racist feelings toward black people to his girlfriend.  Background information on Sterling’s wife filing a lawsuit on the girlfriend for receiving a lot of gifts from Donald over the last few years.  The NBA commissioner issued a statement that backed up Sterling while going after the character of his girlfriend.  Ana details Sterling’s history of racist business practices against Black, Latino, and Asian tenants in his real estate business.  Video of Sterling’s wife defending him to paparazzi comes to light just one day after denouncing him. A tech CEO has been fired after pleading guilty to beating his girlfriend after it was captured on tape.  A Toronto woman struck and killed a 17 year old boy riding his bicycle, which led his brother to overdose on pills while trying to cope with the death.  Now, the driver is suing the family for over $1million for emotional trauma. A lesbian navy veteran is being denied burial rights next to her deceased wife because the state of Idaho doesn’t recognize same sex marriage.
