Does anyone have any thoughts they'd like to share about what occured, how he is being treated, the Nigerian brothers involvement etc?

It's pretty simple to me. If he did it, he should suffer the legal and professional consequences. If he's innocent, he's owed apologies from several sources and whatever the settlement amount from the law suit that would follow.
Were there any discussions on MSNBC and CNN?I think this is a topic that doesn't need any more discussion than it is getting in the press.

He is already contending with legal and professional consequences. He has been charged with a felony and suspended from his work. Media reps who were at first supportive have expressed disappointment and outrage at being duped. I think this is typical of "liberal" folk. They tend not to defend egregious acts or engage in "whataboutism." If they behaved like non-liberals Al Franken would still be in the Senate and Ivanka Trump's email situation would still be in the news.
Personally, I think it looks pretty bad for him but I feel he's entitled to due process.
What do you think @rockhoundofficiando? Were you hoping to find some Smollett defenders?

I don’t know how you draw that parallel. Or find humor. This harms race relations for everyone in the city of Chicago. It can harm legitimate hate crime victims from coming forward. We just went through the horrific Laquan Mcdonald shooting and are raw from that outcome. These are deep seated and long standing racial issues here.Lol. So predictable. Like this one incident absolves ALL the racist attacks that have taken place since circus peanut took office.

This hoax, if to be believed, would entail black on black violence. In the name of MAGA? Is that what you find so predictable?
Soxfan have you listened to Chicago police superintendent Eddie Johnson speak on this at all? Maybe you should.Pretty easy to draw that parallel. Go to social media- go read posts from conservatives. Go to twitter. Go to any conservative TV show (I consider fox news a show, not news,) listen to any conservative radio show, read the articles. I find a ton of humor in reading stupid posts from stupid Trump supporters who take this one incident to prove every victim is a "liar." But hey!
It starts from the top down. Everyone speaking out against Trump is a "liar" according to Trump and all his cronies.
Your post really kind of proves the point I was making....
This idiot could have had started big riots all over the country and the left is still protecting him.

Nope. I read the Chicago Tribune and watch local Chicago news stations and the Associated Press. My comments on this subject don’t reflect Twitter chatter or partisan politics. Just a local perspective.Have you looked at Twitter @Bonfire ?

I would think you might actually be interested in some fact based information on this subject, but I guess not. That’s ok, go back to reading the garbage Trump spews on Twitter. No thanks.Wait wait wait WAIT.... you don't read the "President of the United States" 16 tweets a day on twitter but you want me to watch your local police chief press conference? Because I need to understand why the Jessie Smollet incident is so important to your and your community?
Wow.
