The issue is very few people here actually go to the link and see/read the article and just look at the headline and the first few sentences posted. The article is clearly marked 3/26/2018 for those who actually cared to go read it.
2/26/2018 **
The mod has now corrected the date at the top of the thread to show that the article is from February 26. I guess I was right that FR mods might care.
Correcting the date does not make the violence any less significant or “relevant” to the (manipulated) students and this week’s walkouts. But it does allow Freepers arriving at the thread to avoid the misimpression that this particular violence occurred on 3/14 when it was from 2/26. Just a bit of FR housekeeping, nothing to get riled up about.
I give as few clicks as possible to ABC, NBC, CBS, leftist websites, etc. So I don’t always read the story.
