It's A Wrap!!!
So it has just been announced that there will not be anymore issues of KING Magazine, and the company claims that the economy is to blame for its demise. I know there are going to be a lot of men up set about this so they better cop the last issue, which will hit stands April 21st. The last issue will feature Joe Budden's girlfriend Tahiry and she has enough ass to fill at least two issues, so this should keep the men satisfied for a few months.

Bill O’Reilly Pays for His Racism: Loses Major Dough
After the national protests by YourBlackWorld.com, ThinkProgress.org and ColorofChange.org, UPS is finally getting the point. Recently, the company sent out an email stating that they are no longer going to advertise on The O’Reilly Factor.
Bill O’Reilly harassed Dr. Boyce Watkins last year in an effort to have him fired from Syracuse University for speaking against his racism during the Obama Campaign. Watkins had also called for a boycott of Bill O’Reilly’s corporate sponsors. Keith Olbermann later supported Watkins, stating that O’Reilly’s attacks were unwarranted and that everything that Watkins said was true.
Read the email below:
Thank you for sending an e-mail expressing concern about UPS advertising during the Bill O’Reilly show on FOX News. We do consider such comments as we review ad placement decisions which involve a variety of news, entertainment and sports programming. At this time, we have no plans to continue advertising during this show.

Black Attorney Stabbed 38 Times!
Slain attorney Chiquita Tate was such a believer in the legal system that she had a tattoo of Lady Justice on her back, college friend T. J. Crawford recalled.
Chiquita Tate was in the midde of a high-profile murder trial when she was stabbed to death in her law office.
"She just had an attachment to justice and doing what's right by people. She was always very serious about that," said Crawford, a teacher and community organizer in Chicago, Illinois.
But Tate, described by colleagues as a tenacious defense attorney who fought for her clients, could not save herself.
Family members and friends in Chicago; Atlanta, Georgia, and Tate's adopted home -- tiny Baker, Louisiana -- are reeling from the grisly details of Tate's slaying, and police say it was at the hands of her husband, Greg Harris. They had been married about 14½ months.
Harris, 37, is in custody, accused of stabbing Tate to death. He is charged with second-degree murder and the illegal use of a dangerous weapon. A judge last week set his bond at $500,000.
In a phone interview with CNN, Harris' attorney, Lewis Unglesby, said police have the wrong man.
"Greg Harris by all accounts ... is innocent. I don't know anybody that thinks he did it, except the police," Uglesby said. "There's nothing in his background. He has cooperated completely with the police; he's signed everything they've asked him to sign. He's let them search his house, his car."
Tate, 34, had started her own law firm in downtown Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and was doing well, family and acquaintances said.
"She was up and coming," said Cpl. L'Jean McKneely, a police spokesman in Baton Rouge.

Black News: Jennifer Hudson Sets a Wedding Date
When Chicago’s favorite dream girl gets married, don’t expect to hear anything about it before it happens.
Jennifer Hudson is moving forward with planning her wedding to fellow Chicagoan David Otunga, but the Oscar- and Grammy-winning actress is keeping mum on when the big date will be.
After she recently taped a performance for "American Idol," Hudson told Ryan Seacrest she has set a date for her wedding, but she says, "It’s a secret."
Otunga, perhaps best known as "Punk" from the VH1 reality series "I Love New York 2," has been training to become a professional wrestler. The 28-year-old Harvard Law graduate told Sun-Times reporter Paige Wiser in February, "It was almost like love at first sight. We just clicked. We met one day and have been together ever since."
Black Celebrities: TI Preps for Jail
World-famous rapper T.I. will appear in a federal courtroom Friday for sentencing on weapons charges related to purchasing machine guns and silencers.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, has mentored at-risk students as part of his community service.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris, is expected to be sentenced to one year in prison and be ordered to pay a $100,000 fine, under the terms of a plea agreement reached with authorities last year.
The agreement allowed Harris to remain out of prison for a year while he performed 1,000 hours of community service.
In that time, Harris has completed his hours by mentoring at-risk students at 58 schools, 12 Boys & Girls Clubs, nine churches and many other nonprofit organizations, according to court documents.
Meanwhile, the rapper has released his sixth CD, "Paper Trail," which has sold close to 2 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Harris recently talked to CNN about learning from his mistakes.
"You shouldn't take the things that I've gone through and the negative parts of my life and admire me for that," Harris said. "If anything, admire me for how I've accepted responsibility for the part I've played in placing myself in these situations and what I've done to recover from it."
