| The Incredible, Vanishing National News Story in Waukesha |
| 2021-11-30 |
| [Townhall] Let's cut right to the chase: The media made the Kyle Rittenhouse trial a racial morality play because it suited their leftist ideological narrative, regardless of the facts. As we've written previously, the left is committed to certain Larger Truths, and they'll flog them relentlessly — even when the various particulars don't support them. The reverse is also true: Realities that run counter to the Larger Truths, or that might vindicate or empower the Bad People, are played down, ignored, or memory-holed. Eight days ago, there was a massacre in the heartland. As that horror unfolded at an annual Christmas parade, social media exploded with outrage and speculation, with various observers eager to pin the blame on their political opponents. Once details began to emerge, and the alleged perpetrator was identified, the big media machine ground to a halt, and the would-be deluge was reduced to a trickle. What likely would have been hyped as a massive national story with endless implications (think Charlottesville but with a substantially higher body count) instantly became a minor, if tragic, disturbance. A local news story. And even some left-leaning local news outlets didn't seem too excited about dwelling on it too much: Related: Waukesha: 2021-11-29 Good Morning Waukesha: 2021-11-29 BLM accused of launching bail fund for Waukesha massacre suspect Waukesha: 2021-11-28 Waukesha victim, 11 - one of nine kids injured during Christmas parade attack - is clinging to life on a ventilator nearly a week after SUV killer Darrell Brooks hit crowd |

| #5 I bet, but not suggesting anything, that if some person with light skin were to take this turd out the media would be all over it - smearing the person who would dare do it to a person of color. |

| #4 Given the way MSM is reporting it... THE SUV DID IT. Should we expect a AF/BLM RIOT demanding suv's be banned because they are WHITE built next?😂 |
