Here is some source material about the media bias charge, from the Star-Advertiser: http://www.staradvertiser.com/2016/09/16/breaking-news/judge-declines-to-dismiss-theft-other-charges-against-kenoi/ ... Start reading at the "One of four motions ..." section and follow to the "Media coverage" paragraph. That covers the foundations of this column's premise pretty efficiently. ... And you note "whatever his lawyers say" as irrelevant and unconnected to Kenoi; that seems like an odd argument to make, especially since Kenoi is a lawyer and presumably knows the system well. Are you saying he would pick lawyers to defend him and then encourage them to make legal arguments he would not / could not / does not support? ... I would like to know more about the administrative exemption; can you provide details? First I've heard of it.
