CBS News Deletes Post Declaring Kyle Rittenhouse a Murderer Before Trial’s End
Breitbart ^ | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 11/12/2021 12:09:43 PM PST by Impala64ssa

CBS News deleted a November 11, 2021, tweet declaring Kyle Rittenhouse a murderer, even though Rittenhouse’s trial is ongoing and the verdict on his August 25, 2020, actions has not been reached.

The deleted tweet reported on Rittenhouse’s November 10, 2021, testimony, in which he broke down in tears while talking. The tweet said, “Kyle Rittenhouse testified in his own murder trial yesterday, breaking down in tears as he told the jury he murdered two men at a Black Lives Matter protest last year in self-defense.”

Regarding the first shooting fatality of August 25, 2020, Rittenhouse testified that he was running to put out a fire when a man named Joseph Rosenbaum allegedly ambushed him. Rittenhouse claimed one man, Joshua Ziminski, walked toward him with a pistol while Rosenbaum was closing in on his right side. Rittenhouse began running, trying to escape the situation.
Reuters reported that witness Richie McGinniss testified Rosenbaum said “F*ck you” and lunged for Rittenhouse’s rifle before Rittenhouse shot him. KTLA noted Rittenhouse claimed Rosenbaum had allegedly threatened him earlier in the night. Rittenhouse stated, “If I would have let Mr. Rosenbaum take my firearm from me, he would have used it and killed me with it, and probably killed more people.”

NBC News noted that Rittenhouse indicated he shot and killed Anthony Huber after Huber allegedly swung a skateboard at him twice and “pulled away” Rittenhouse’s gun.

Tweets at link. If some psycho is throwing the n-word around while hurling f-bombs as he tries to grab someone's rifle, a reasonable person can deduce there's an imminent threat to an innocent person's physical well being. CB ASS trying to avoid getting the Nick Sandman treatment? Too little too late.

You already did it. You are going to have to suffer punishment for that.

The press has ridiculed him for breaking down on the stand. But if Rittenhouse had not broken down on the stand they would’ve described that as, “he calmly bragged, without the slightest bit of remorse, how he cold-bloodedly gunned down and murdered his victims who were fighting for racial justice”.

This an outright lie. That was a riot and the fact they inserted BLM in there is to insinuate he shot black people, which did not happen.

Pretty sharp contrast to the language that they would use when they like someone - just about every other word in the story about the trial would “allegedly.”

By deleting it, do they think it never existed? They need to be sued.

When all is said and done, I want to hear Kyle shout, “Let’s go Brandon.”

SO you and I both allegedly saw that allegedly repeated “allegedly” in every allegedly accurate written sentence in that allegedly unbiased story too, eh?

Too late, a massive law suit will surely be on the way soon enough.

...breaking down in tears as he told the jury he murdered two men at a Black Lives Matter protest last year in self-defense.

Ummm...when did self-defense become murder? Homicide, yeah, but not murder. That's two completely different things, motive being the primary factor.
This comment is the murder of logic!

There are so many parties to sue in this case for slander.
