At Least Eight Dead in Indianapolis

The point I was making is that the media usually has a knack for finding people who don’t know squat about what they’re talking about to interview. Like in a small plane crash, the interviewee will almost always refer to any small plane as a “Piper Cub”...

 

Sorry to spoil your fun...

 

Sometimes it is the way media frames things, too. Not just who they ask, but when and how they ask and how they cut it.

 

Growing up, either the media was a LOT more subtle about it or I was just not paying close enough attention but it seems like they aren’t even trying to hide their biases any more. Whether it’s Fox, CNN or any other outlet (be it print, internet or TV...) it’s just a huge confirmation bias circle jerk.

 

I also think the average person doesn't speak like a cop at a podium.

"he came in with his assault rifle, blasting everything in sight! He just kept changing clips and firing!"

"The perpetrator entered the business with his semi-automatic AR-style rifle, firing at any target that presented itself. The perpetrator, after firing 30 rounds, would exchange the empty magazine for a full magazine and then would continue firing his weapon."

 

This may be why the difference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FCC_f...ctrine of the,honest, equitable, and balanced.

 

And the move to cable/streaming, that basically removed the power of the FCC, had a lot to do with it.

 

Must not have been a White Male or that would have been the Lead.

 

You just keep on thinking you're funny right up until you're on the receiving end of a rainbow spray of hot gum drops.

 

I won’t post it here, but this comment made me think of the NSFW Skittles commercial on YouTube...

 

Brandon Scott Hole

No pictures of him as of yet

 

Brandon.

Come on.

 

Any relation to Orson Scott Card?

 

I've seen Equilibrium like five times.

 

Being reported that he was known to authorities before the shooting because of warning from his family

 

Sounds familiar.

 

Kid looks like Beans from Even Stevens

 

Looks like he was.

I understand where you are going considering current narratives, but honestly I would say the black male headline leads more often than words like attacker or shooter.

 

What, as a society, can we do about the white male random mass shooter issue we seem to have?

 

We could try chilling the [uck fay] out, and valuing each other more. That could be a start.
