NBC, ABC silent, pivot Colorado shooting coverage after new details emerge on shooter
Fox News ^ | 12/02/2022 | Nikolas Lanum

n the wake of the Colorado Springs mass shooting that left five patrons of an LGBTQ nightclub dead, numerous liberal journalists and pundits blamed Republican rhetoric for the killing spree—but have since gone quiet on the motive as new information trickles out, including his claim to be "non-binary."

While early reporting on the massacre was filled with headlines tying Christian conservatives, right-wing media outlets, and members of the Republican Party to the attack, recent reports instead focus primarily on victims of the attack, the patrons that intervened to stop the shooter, as well as concerns about gun laws.

In the days following the shooting, ABC's "The View" aired a segment about the shooting, appearing to blame Republican leadership, with co-host Whoopi Goldberg specifically calling out Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert, Colo.

To say nothing of the “good guy with a high-heel beats bad guy with an AR-15” angle.

Fortunately we have ‘other’ news services that are more reliable and truthful; who really needs the MSM anyway?

Sorta like the Wal-Mart shooter. Bipoc, used a handgun not an AR and was in managemeht(?). The poor kids in Idaho were straight(? never heard otherwise) white kids and were stabbed. NOT news for the lamestream. Maybe I’ll check HLN. Ooops. “Talent” terminated.

It came out recently that the two girls not dating the male victim died in the same bed, normally slept together. Apparently, they had been best friends since elementary school.

Objective achieved. The mainstream media got their Marxist narrative out and their audience fully absorbed that narrative. The enemy here is not just the mainstream media. It is also their viewers and advertisers.

And NEVER an apology or retraction. The damage is already done and that's what REALLY matters.

And nothing else reported will change their minds, that's how manipulative the media is.

Sexual deviates making statements abut other sexual deviates.

There is an awful lot of just spiteful bitchiness among the many factions of that community. High school “mean girl” psychological profiles leaping across gender lines.

Eternal adolescence is no way for anybody to live. And sometimes it just boils over unchecked.

Talking about Robin Meade?

Management must have finally gotten upset with her doing the “Salute the Troops” segments and singing the national anthem at NASCAR races.🤷‍♂️

Wish that was on tape. Could be a valuable warning!

Oh, it’s still Trump’s fault. How many gender-fluid individuals did he appoint to high positions in government. How many trans women did he make full admirals? How many TikTok influencers did he have mince around the White House? None!

It is obvious that Trump, his deplorable supporters and their ideas of ‘normal’ drove they/them to do what they/them did. For the good of ‘our democracy’ Trump and his supporters’ ideas must be suppressed.

Freepers: understand this: YOU are the evil-doer. YOU are the guilty one. YOU are the violent, racist, hate-filled, untra-MAXI-MAGA, right-wing, Christian, extremely extreme extremist (I love that) patriot. You will get ZERO slack or tolerance from the uber-lefties.

They. Hate. You.

And they are intractable. They will NOT listen or debate — they just shout louder. It’s a technique.
(I didn’t want to believe all that; but recent events (last ten years) force me to sadly accept Reality.)

Mister Smith may have gone to Washington, but he got mugged and was left bleeding out in the ditch for dead.

It’s true. Whoever gets the news out first, true or false, is the one who will be believed.

Initially attempts were made to portray the shooter as pretending to be "fluid" in order to beat any hate crime charges. They even found a"frozen vegetable" to give it's expert opinions. But they say questioning someone's gender status is like a crime against humanity. Even if he IS faking it, so what? Norman Bates dressed up as his mother. I know, that was only a movie but how often does life imitate art?
