What follows is an example of how the media has an agenda, makes matters worse, and sucks at life. Just before the Derek Chauvin verdict was read, there was an incident in Columbus. Ma'Khia Bryant was shot by police. NPR's headline for its continuing coverage is Columbus Police Shoot And Kill Black, Teenage Girl. You can diagram the blatant political agenda there. At the bottom of the article is the following disclaimer:
This is a developing story. Some facts reported by the media may later turn out to be wrong.

I was under the impression that NPR was the media and not a liberal activist organization. I'm also old enough to remember when the media only reported things once ALL the facts were in. But doing so prevents "media" outlets like NPR from promoting an agenda. They wanted this story to be the new George Floyd story. It's clear from the headline. They'll just fix the "facts" as they come in, once they already spun you the way they wanted to.
Instead of waiting for the bodycam footage to be released, as it was shortly after the NPR article went live.
