They are burning and clowns are loading carts stealing again. Why does CNN ony mention it and not show the police assaults and hundreds of looting clowns?

The fatal police shooting of a Black man allegedly armed with a knife in the western side of Philadelphia sparked violent protests overnight, with at least 30 officers reported injured early Tuesday – including one sergeant who was struck by a pick-up truck, officials said.

Hundreds of people took to the streets to protest the Monday afternoon shooting of 27-year-old Walter Wallace Jr., calling it another example of police officers killing a Black man. Demonstrators marched to a city police station while officers lined up behind metal barricades.

At least 35 people, including five juveniles, were arrested over the course of the night, a Philadelphia Police Department spokesperson said in an email to Fox News. Their charges have not been announced yet.

(CNN)Philadelphia police shot and killed a Black man who waved a knife while standing on a street, plunging the city into protests that injured 30 officers as the police commissioner acknowledged the encounter "raises many questions." Drawing fresh national attention to fatal use of force by police, the incident also renews the spotlight on the swing state of Pennsylvania just a week before the presidential election. The man killed in West Philadelphia was Walter Wallace, according to a statement from Mayor Jim Kenney. Swift demonstrations following his death ended with the police injuries, businesses looted and 10 people arrested, police said.

Anger over the incident led to violence overnight, and Philadelphia police said at least 30 officers were injured during protests, according to a police press release obtained by CNN affiliate WPVI. Most of the injured officers were hit by projectiles, but at least one "was struck by a pickup truck - she sustained a broken leg and various other injuries," police said, according to WPVI. That officer was taken to a hospital. The other 29 injured officers were treated and released. In addition, five police vehicles were vandalized, and multiple businesses were looted across the city, the police said. At least 10 people were arrested.

Interestingly enough, MSNBC which is way to the left of CNN is covering it

Black man shot dead by police in Philadelphia, sparking protests

“I have watched the video of this tragic incident and it presents difficult questions that must be answered,” Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney said.

OP is either amazingly lazy or lying or trolling
 
Mycroft said:
CNN can't show this stuff.

1. They are mired in their Trump hatred. If they show stuff that helps Trump, that'll go against everything they stand for.
2. Showing this WILL help Trump and hurt Biden.
3. Even if they were to suddenly reconnect with the journalistic standards they've abandoned because of their Trump hatred, they STILL wouldn't show this reality because their viewers won't like it. Their viewers don't want reality...they want Trump hatred.
4. And even if they said "To hell with the viewers, we want truth.", they would then face backlash from their competitors...MSNBC, ABC, CBS, etc.

If CNN showed this stuff, they would be driven out of business by their fellow Trump haters.

Second post already debunked the OP.

Are you just too lazy to verify or lying?

You're right. It's merely buried on a secondary page under a heap of nonsense. The headline on the first page is still "Philadelphia police killed a Black man in a shooting that raises questions"

LOL

One Trumpist gets busted lying about CNN supposedly not reporting something. So, another Trumpist swoops in with predictable complaints about how even though OP is a lie and CNN is reporting on it, the reporting isn't in the *right* location.

Give it up. The tactic is too stupid for words.

Speaking of tactics that are too stupid for words, let's talk about how you keep lying and calling me a Trumpist, as if the only way anyone could ever disagree with you or dare to call out your bullshit is if they were a Trumpist.

Or we just can split hairs all day. Yeah, the OP mistakenly said that CNN "won't show it" because he did not see that the news of a full-on riot in one of our nation's largest cities is buried on their website under real barn-burners like "A new trailer for 'Saved by the Bell' reboot is here" and "A South Dakota man who voiced concerns about his state's hospital capacity died from coronavirus." Thank god you were here to dig it up and pat yourself on the back for making him look so "foolish."

Or we can really get into it, and you can deny that CNN is effectively stoking the flames by leaving out or deliberately deemphasizing critical facts, publishing BS like "police shot and killed a man who waved a knife while standing on a city street," as if the guy wasn't moving toward the police with the knife when they shot him. Why give a clear recitation of all the facts, after all? God forbid anyone would NOT immediately run out and light something on fire after reading that he was he just standing there minding his own business when the cops shot him.

This could be the black ghetto riot that gets Trump re elected. Whoever wins the next election, I want laws passed to crush black ghetto riots as quickly as possible and as violently as necessary.

Characteristics that enabled the ancestors of Negroes to thrive in the tribal environment of sub Saharan Africa learn for them many of them felony convictions in civilized countries. A criminal justice system that is effective for the two civilized races is insufficiently harsh for Negroes. Before the civil rights movement that was understood in the United States, and especially in the South. That is why, when a black man and a white man committed the same crime, the black man got more punishment.

Graphic content of the police shooting.
 
100% of “why isn’t mainstream media talking about X” accusations fall into two categories:

1) Mainstream media is, in fact, talking about X.
2) They aren’t talking about it because it’s absolute horseshit found only in far-right garbage blogs

No, not really. There’s a reason people pay lots of money for newspapers to place articles, letters, and advertisements on a certain page. That’s because hardly anyone reads the stuff buried amongst pages of mindless ballyhoo. The same applies to their websites and CNN does this all the time on theirs. They place their op-ed’s warts and all front and center at the top and bury the actual objective journalism article way down the page amongst puff pieces and celebrity gossip because, like every news organization, it knows most people are unlikely to see or read it. They run their website like they run their cable news station - punditry uber alles and it skews way to the left especially on social justice issues.
