CNN.com – Rhymes busted, charged with assault – Aug 20, 2006
NEW YORK (AP) — Rapper Busta Rhymes has been arrested and charged with assault, police said Sunday. Few details about the arrest and the attack that prompted it were immediately available, although police Officer Martin Speechley said they occurred about a week apart. Representatives of the rapper, whose legal name is Trevor Smith, could not immediately be reached for comment. Messages left for Violator Management and for a lawyer who once represented Rhymes were not immediately returned. Police have been wanting to interview Rhymes since the February shooting death of one of his bodyguards, Israel Ramirez. Ramirez, 29, was killed outside a Brooklyn studio where Rhymes was recording a music video. The rapper and another bodyguard were sued the following month by a fan who says the two men beat him after he asked for the Rhymes’ autograph.
CNN.com is the official leader in news of the obvious. I touched on this a few weeks ago when Lance Bass came out of the closet and they considered it front page news. It just looks like they have a template where they rotate through the same stories: Gas is expensive, Rapper commits crime, Obvious Gay celebrity exposed, Violence in the Middle East, Wacky Local News Story, and President Bush is on vacation.
I really would like to help CNN.com and expand their choice of obvious news stories. So here are five obvious news stories that they can take right off of myspace.com.
1) Person A meets Person B in person… Looks nothing like their profile pictures.
I am one of the few people that actually look better in person.

2) Guy talks to girl for two seconds and offers to meet to have meaningless sex with them.
Sample conversation:
Guy: Hey I really like your profile Tori Amos is one of my favorite bands too.
Girl: Thanks! It’s nice to meet you. Tori Amos isn’t a band.
Guy: I knew that I was just testing you. So um… uh… Do you want to see a picture of my dick? Want to get together tonight and bang?
3) Teenager posts something completely stupid, gets suspended from school
