Without the Internet to keep the MSM “honest”, I doubt we would know any of this.

Without the Internet to keep the MSM “honest”, I doubt we would know any of this.

An original AP article on this guy was headlined: 'Shooting suspect was volunteering at LGBT center'

When you search Google by that headline, you see that it was run in all kinds of online venues:
* Miami Herald
* Boston.com
* USNEWS.com
* MyFoxHouston.com
* MSNBC.com
* 13ABC.com
* etc.

Then, when you click on the same AP article at these venues, you see that AP -- and all these venues and more -- changed the headline to: 'Official: Suspect criticized group before shooting

The shooting itself almost becomes an afterthought to what AP deems the most important part of the story: That a certain group needed to be 'criticized'

And, of course, 'tis not PC among the liberals to associate a shooter with the LGBT movement...so, of course, that headline was dropped in favor of almost blaming FRC.

Outrageous AP...
