One of the saddest examples of how far our media has fallen

[CrazyPhuD]

Generally speaking I don't watch the news and I can't stand any of the major outlets. I am particularly anti places like MSNBC or Foxnews that have no objectivity. But this style of reporting should revolt everyone.

What happened to our news being objective analysis instead of blatant marketing for whatever idea a particular reporter wants to push???? I guess being objective is too boring and no one would want to watch...

So here's the highlight important bits

• Intruder breaks into house
• Women takes two children and retreats through THREE LOCKED doors and up into a crawlspace
• Intruder hears someone in house, breaks through THREE LOCKED doors and opens crawlspace.
• Woman shoots intruder when she has nowhere else to go

and the USAtoday seems to think that the point they should lead with and bold is.....

The man pleaded for her to stop, but she kept firing until she emptied her rounds

Honestly do you think the media was intending to tell the facts of the story, or to build public opinion that what she did was wrong???

I'm not personally a big self defense fan because I don't personally believe I could shoot someone except in the most extreme of cases. But damn I'm amazed at what this women did, she likely has little training and completely panicked and yet she still hit 5 of 6 shoots. Considering I believe police hit < 20% of shots fired on average that's amazing. She's either one hell of a shot or he was REALLY REALLY close. The simple reality is that I think in that situation the vast majority of people would be so scared that no matter what the guy says almost everyone is going to be pulling that trigger until they hit and empty chamber. It's not evil intent, it's unbridled panic.

Un ****ing believable by the media.....

THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!

I think the fact she placed 5/6 shots into him with all the stress she must have been under is impressive.
I hope my wife could do the same if faced with the same situation.

An armed mother defending her children is not someone to be trifled with.

Bwana speaks truth. If the guck head hadn't been doing shit he knows he isn't supposed the do then tuck head wouldn't have been shot. Not a mystery here except that anyone ****ing pitied this ****bag.

You need to get rid of some of your friends because they are really enemies. If you do not think they are enemies then you do not know an enemy when you see one~

This.

You idiots probably defend cops who murder idiots.

Jesus ****. What a tard.

Anyone who isnt 100% behind this woman can eat shit.

The only thing wrong with this story is that the rat bastard didnt die.

The main stream media has moved so far left and now they don't even mask their bias. Except for Fox News, talk radio, and the Wall Street Journal, the other 99% of the media leans left.

Obama has received almost no negative coverage from the mainstream media in over 4 years. Democrats Carter nor Clinton even received that much favorable coverage.

I don't understand why so much of the media thinks Obama walks on water and all I see is a Communist/Socialist in a Capitalist suit......

[suzzer99]

You mean like how the mainstream media went with Nate Silver, and actual math and statistics to predict the election - while right-wing media went with Dick Morris and the unskewed polls guy?

But yeah - I'm sure that's the only time the propaganda bubble tried to create their own reality and got it spectacularly wrong. Definitely Obama is a communist, even though on actual issues he's probably more conservative than Eisenhower - due to this country shifting so far right.
