Neighbor shoots 6-year-old boy over bike, and it takes public outrage to keep him in jail

Covered by every national media org + all the local stations / newspapers but sure, let's pretend it was "basically ignored by the media".

Covered IN PASSING maybe. I literally didn't even hear about until at least a week later and i usually have CNN or BBC on in the background for half the day. It most certainly did not receive major coverage unlike what the guy i was replying to implied.

There was obviously more to talk about regarding the "central park karen" case.

Oh i see you're trolling, no one is that dumb. What the hell is there to say about that nonsense story. Every day women make false allegations of rape (not to mention everyday many many more women are actually raped) how in the fuck is one woman falsely claiming she felt threatened a story. Let alone NATIONAL HEADLINE NEWS. She deserved to have her video go semi viral among the outrage losers of Twitter, she deserved to lose her job, and she deserved whatever the legal punishment is for Colin filling false report (which i think should be 10 years in jail, but i guess it's much less). But NATIONAL HEADLINE NEWS on CNN over and over again. Gimme a break, clear narrative pushing. They even brought her back up during the black on Asian assault wave reports as some distraction

The disturbed shooter was arrested without incident and the investigation was executed competently

Don't want to highlight that, goes against the "if this was a black guy the cops would have shot him" narrative idiots repeat ad nauseum. Literally the worst possible criminal, a fucking baby killers. Taken in without incident because he didn't fight it.

I mean i agree under normal circumstance media shouldn't discuss an individual murder for too long. But they definitely should not be covering dumb Karen interactions in the park that resulted in no violence.
