Nets LIE About Kenosha Shooting, COVER-UP Attacking Rioters #Political

https://bit.ly/34BSOTO


Just after midnight, in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin turned deadly after a teenager killed two and injured a third. The protracted incident was an apparent case of self-defense (though he was charged with first-degree intentional homicide), as the teen was fleeing from a mob violent rioters. But the viewers of ABC, CBS, and NBC were treated to lies and misinformation during their evening newscasts later that day.

Video evidence from multiple angles show 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse running into a parking lot as a violent rioter chased after him and threw something at him. As the assailant got closer, Rittenhouse turned and fired his rifle. The 17-year-old was then chased down the street as a violent mob attacked him. He fell to the ground and was beaten with a skateboard by one assailant and other brandished a handgun at him. Again Rittenhouse defended himself with his rifle.

But that’s not the story that was told to network news viewers.

According to ABC correspondent Alex Perez on World News Tonight, “this graphic video shows a man opening fire on a crowd in Kenosha, Wisconsin, shortly after another nearby shooting…” He said this while playing video of Rittenhouse falling to the ground.

“A video showing a man running down the street with a firearm. A crowd chasing behind him. That man falls to the ground and begins shooting,” Perez added, with no mention of the fact that one the people baring down on him (and who was shot in the arm) was holding a handgun.

On CBS Evening News, correspondent Mola Lenghi painted Rittenhouse as a mass shooter on a rampage. “It allegedly began when he shot one person in the head at this boarded up business. Then fired on protesters in the middle of the street as they tried to subdue him,” he claimed.

And no other details were given about what happened in the chaos, even though plenty of on-the-ground accounts from reporters who witnessed it existed.

NBC’s Gabe Gutierrez somehow found a way to be even more vague about the incident. “This video captured part of the chaos. Shots ringing out. A man on the ground firing a long gun. Bystanders running in horror. It is unclear what happened before or after this video,” he told viewers.

What also went unmentioned by all three networks was how Daily Caller chief video director Richie McGinniss was inches away when the first shooting in the parking lot. He took the shirt off his back and used it to render aid. He then helped to carry the wounded man to the hospital. McGinniss had also interviewed Rittenhouse earlier in the night.

These lies and misinformation were made possible because of lucrative sponsorships from Verizon on ABC, Allstate on CBS, and Farmers Insurance on NBC. Their contact information is linked so you can tell them about what they’re funding. CBS Evening News has also asked people to text anchor Norah O’Donnell at this number: (202) 217-1107.
