The city paper released a story and, in the story, Rane was quote as being in the hospital and communicating with folks over email because for some reason Skyes cannot leave Kenya.
Anyone body on the underground knows the only people that don't leave Kenya are the Mossad and ministry of state security (MSS)
source http://dmvblogspot.bloggieblog.com/4376/4376.htmlHere we go again another back drop to the Rane Sykes and WPGC drama. This time the author of the story did a post and kissed the black of Jim Bells azz .
Tell Truth, we all read DC City Paper to see who got thrown under bus with no breaks. Hell, Jim Bell will be ok. The post is below
My interview with lawyer Jim Bell was instrumental to the article I penned about Ranelle Sykes' fight for equal pay at radio station WPGC. Still, interviewing him at length, I only used a fraction of the material he gave me for the story.
Bell is a sharp lawyer with a long list of credentials and a pile of interesting cases. I'd love to write a profile on him, getting into just who he is, and outlining the fascinating role he plays in the city. But the piece I wrote for the September 29 issue of Washington City Paper, "Where's D.J. Rane?' was about Sykes. That's why I didn't include more details about his lengthy and successful professional and civic history.
When I contacted Bell for an interview, he informed me I was free to ask him questions via email or phone. Though I utilize those mediums for daily reporting for the Washington City Paper blogs, when writing a cover piece, I prefer to meet an interview subject face-to-face, so I can draw a more profound picture of them. When I explained that to Bell, he suggested we meet up at the Stadium Club located at 2127 Queens Chapel Road NE. Minutes later, I called him back to ask if we could meet someplace a little closer to City Paper, as I was swamped. Bell told me that if I wanted to do an in-person interview I would need to come to the club. I agreed, and later wrote that Bell "insisted" on meeting there.
I thought that it was important to include the meeting. Bell's preference for the club showed that he was a complicated individual, willing to fight against gender discrimination and at the same time, meet at a "gentleman's club." It wasn't meant to be disparaging, just to add a layer to the story.
Before leaving the club, which has a restaurant as well as a performance area, Bell asked me if I wanted to visit the performance side of the club. (Diners at the well-regarded steakhouse can, in fact, see into the strip area). I said I did. Bell finished up his meal. For color, I decided to record what he'd ordered: filet mignon and lobster tail. Looking the items up later via Stadium's online menu, I saw the price of the filet was $40 and the tail 46. I added the two numbers together and surmised it was a $86 meal. I thought the expensive cuisine conveyed Bell's financial success.
Before long, Bell and I sat down in two lounge chairs in the performance area. At some point, Bell summoned two dancers, and had them do a "table dance." I took notes furiously enough so that someone passing by remarked, "What is this, a library?"
During that time I quoted Bell as singing along with a line that I assumed showed up in the Woka Flocka Flame song Bell had asked the DJ to play. I was wrong on that. I haven't been able to find the lyrics in the artist's work. We have corrected the story on that point.
Careers and reputations are a fickle thing, and I didn't mean to impugn Bell's. He's obviously a top tier lawyer. And I don't, by the way, have anything against clubs like Stadium. I spent an enjoyable evening there and would go back.
http://dmvblogspot.bloggieblog.com/4375/4375.htmlIf you have not heard, there is major drama in the DMV over Rane Sykes , Keith “DJ Flexx†Clagon, and CBS radio aka WPGC . Well, this story starting to sound like a micro docu drama.
As you know, the City Paper published a story on their website. The website allows people to post comments.
Well, Allegedly, in the story a reference was made to Jim Bell and meeting at a stripping and eating steak.
Well some alleged dude name Jim Bell posted a response to the story. At this point in time, no one knows if is the real Jim Bell the dc local attorney or some fake but the post is below
I am writing to inform you of two serious errors in this story. I will not allow someone to "Jason Blair" me in an article as I have spent over two decades to build my professional reputation. It needs to be said that I engage in a national civil rights and entertainment law practice. I have received awards from the United State House of Representatives, Maryland State Senate, Governor of California, District of Columbia City Council and City Council of Baltimore for my legal work. I am an award winning documentary filmmaker with the film entitled "Don't Hate: Strippers Fight the Government" scheduled to released on DVD in January 2012. I hold a B.A. degree from California State University Sacramento and a Law degree from American University. Altruism is a part of my life as evidenced by my being a 33° Prince Hall Mason and Life Member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. None of this information was contained in the article but it was all given to the reporter.
Context and truth always matter in every story as those above facts are not the light I was show in.
#1 I never insisted that Mr. Smith meet me at a Strip Club. The facts in our email chain prove it: One August 14, Mr. Smith sent me a message that said, “Jimmy, can we set up a quick in-person interview?†I responded by suggesting an email interview. Then he wrote that he’d prefer to “describe meeting up with you and talking about the case.†Two days later, Mr. Smith called me to see if I was in DC so he could interview me. I told him that I was in Maryland but he could interview me right now over the phone. He then asked will I be in DC anytime today and I told him yes I was having dinner at the 4 star restaurant at Stadium Club and he was welcome to meet me there since he did not want to interview me over the phone. As your paper has reported, the Stadium Club includes a restaurant and a separate strip club. We talked for 2 and a half hours in the restaurant and the interview was over.
Afterwards, Smith asked could he come to the other side where the strippers were while he waited for his cab. We then walked around to the club area which is separate and he talked to a few of the dancers and they told him about my winning injunctions and lawsuits against states and counties that tried to outlaw strip clubs and how it helped them to support their children and their family members (none of that made it to the article). The DJ played one of my favorite songs which was a billboard top 13 hit "No Hands" and the dancers danced for him that's why he was, "gawking as a licorice-thin red g-string falls from the perfectly shaped orange-sorbet buttocks of a stripper named Royal" as she was dancing for him. He talked to them some more and I had someone to drive him in my car to the metro station.
He could have waited outside for his cab in the gated parking lot with security. If nothing sinister is a foot then why not say the name of the restaurant Stadium Club DC in the article or that it was a 4 star restaurant.There are several strip clubs in the DC area but there is only one that has a 4 star restaurant and it is separate from the club.
#2 The article states that “Jimmy Bell has dropped $86 on a plate of filet mignon and lobster†and then sang along as a DJ played a Wacka Flocka Flame song whose lyrics are, “I’m a free niggah, I do what I want.†But a plate of filet mignon and lobster is not $86. You can call the resturant and verify that fact as the price is on the menu. And the song the DJ put on was the billboard top 13 hit "No Hands." No where is this song does it state, "I’m a free niggah, I do what I want." That song does not exist.
I have presented the facts. It's time for you to do the right thing.
Jim Bell, Esq.
