after a live round discharged from a gun he was holding on the set of “Rust” last month resulting in the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.


And how did that live round get discharged? There seems to be reluctance to say that he pointed the gun and pulled the trigger. The media reports are saying, as we see here, the gun went off, implying that nobody knows why that happened, and in any case, the accidental discharge had nothing to do with Baldwin.

While generally frowned upon by media elites, use of the passive voice seems to come into its own when reporting on the misdeeds of leftist icons.

Guns fire themselves all the time. Didn’t you know that? (sarcasm rating 300%)

The media has been doing this from day one. Calling a real gun a “prop” gun. Couching the narrative in terms that make it sound like Baldwin is the victim here. Beyond disgusting.
