Notice that Rene Stutzman of the Orlando Sentinel composed the sentence as:

"With a single punch, Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who eventually shot and killed the unarmed 17-year-old, then Trayvon climbed on top of George Zimmerman and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times, leaving him bloody and battered, authorities have revealed to the Orlando Sentinel"

rather than a more appropriate and sequentially correct:

"With a single punch, Trayvon Martin decked the Neighborhood Watch volunteer, climbed on top of George Zimmerman and slammed his head into the sidewalk several times, leaving him bloody and battered, before Zimmerman defended himself by shooting and killed the attacker, authorities have revealed to the Orlando Sentinel."

Rene immediately propagandizes some more:

"That is the account Zimmerman gave police, and much of it has been corroborated by witnesses, authorities say."

Much?!? Just what in that statement from authorities has not been collaborated!?! Eventually Rene Stutzman gets down and dirty in her leftist media skankiness:

"Trayvon was an unarmed black teenager who had committed no crime, an innocent who was gunned down while walking back from a 7-Eleven with nothing more sinister than a package of Skittles and can of Arizona iced tea."

The crime, which cost Martin his life, was attacking Zimmerman so violently and viciously that Zimmerman had reasonable cause to fear for his life. On this story the media have flaunted their complete and utter fifth-column political whoredom.

Noted that myself. They can’t report facts, we need the narrative so we know how to react.

Your analysis of Rene’s writing style is dead-on (no pun intended)!

Even when they tell the truth, they do so with a dedicated effort to blunt the dousing effects that it may have upon their growing mobs! It is sickening and obvious!

Of course, just to play devil’s advocate, she might have actually gone to college and got a degree in journalism and that too could account for the complete failure of her writing techniques! Lord knows that composition is no longer actually taught in composition class! Proper grammar and punctuation are the only things which Professors have made is more malleable than our Constitution!
