Read the article. CNN was accused of altering the photo of the perp to look more white. The photo was of the wrong person and showed original color image alongside a whitened version. CNN had not even posted any photos of the perp yet.

GP was implying that CNN was going to use a racial ploy to make shooter white instead of brown. CNN was not doing that, not this time. That's a smear. They do it us all the time, but, again, not this time.

yes, GP took it down, but that wasn't good enough. This would have been incredibly simple to vet. That it wasn't is not excusable in my opinion.

My comment concerns the nature of the author’s source(s) — specifically, the widespread sarcasm that castigated the MSM’s racial agenda ala Zimmerman. Whether or not CNN is currently demonic doesn’t factor into the public opinion that despises it for previous derelictions. That said, I appreciate your aim for accuracy.
