| 'CBS wants a race war': Outlet slammed for headline saying police killed black man while leaving out he reportedly fired first |
| 2020-06-20 |
| [WashingtonExaminer] CBS News drew criticism Wednesday for a headline on a story involving police shooting and killing a black man without mentioning the man allegedly opened fire first. "Deputies kill half-brother of black man found hanged in park," a CBS headline posted on Twitter Wednesday read, referring to the death of Terron Jammal Boone. Boone was the half-brother of Robert Fuller, a black man found hanging in a park on June 10 in what was first believed to be a suicide before the coroner walked back that conclusion. The tweet doesn't include the police report that states officers attempted to stop Boone, who was wanted for kidnapping, spousal assault, and assault with a deadly weapon, at which point he jumped out of his vehicle and opened fire on officers before they shot and killed him. |
