In The News – How ABC News Presented Tyre Nichols, Paul Pelosi, and Palestinian Mass Shooters

Sometimes when I visit some folks I know they watch ABC Evening News. They don’t believe much of what they hear and recognize the slant, but they still watch it. So what did I see the night of January 27, 2023?

Prologue

They preview what stories they will cover. Tonight for the first segment they were discussing the then-impending release of police bodycam footage of Tyre Nichols’ death. Segment 2 was discussing bodycam footage of the attack on Nancy Pelosi’s husband. They tried to make the two sound equal. Segment 3 was about a Palestinian mass shooter who chose Holocaust Remembrance Day for his killing spree in Israel.

Segment 1 – Riot But Don’t Riot

ABC News was sure to play footage of people saying don’t riot (then they interrupted Jeopardy! to show footage of Tyre Nichols being pepper-sprayed and screaming for his mother), followed by a sermon from the civil rights equivalent of an ambulance chaser Ben Crump rallying the crowd to irrational action against the police.

I’m thinking Ben Crump just heard that a black adult was killed by 5 police officers and assumed that they were white, because he made sure to make race a part of his message. Upon learning they were Black, he probably slightly modified rehearsed speeches when insisting that systemic racism was what led to this, saying that Tyre Nichols would have been killed no matter what the color of the officers’ skins was (all five were black) because our system is designed to kill blacks (so all police are evil, this “racism” idea was repeated by CNN). Again, that’s not true. There is no racial disparity in police shootings (except when it comes to media coverage because dead Blacks are more profitable for the media and its civil rights allies like BLM), it is true that more blacks have interactions with police, but it’s not true they are dying unjustly by the hundreds or thousands as Democrats believe. And to say all police are evil because of these few officers we saw is like saying all Blacks are evil because for decades they’ve commited murder more than any other race, so much so even Obama spoke out about it. I will acknowledge that after seeing the video, the only possible justification for what the police did is if Tyre Nichols somehow raped one of their relatives or something horrific like that and this was street justice, but even if that was the case the officers were rightly fired, and if there is no extreme justification like that then the officers are simply evil people.

As to the “culture” that Ben Crump mentioned, that’s called being human. Any enforcers of power can become abusive (literally they just took a bunch of random people for these two experiments and found the heights humans would go to when allowed or asked. Random people, Check here for some other relevant experiments… plus some other ones that aren’t related.). So what is it that Ben Crump, BLM, and Democrats want? More power of course, and more people in power. Abolish the police, but we saw in 2020 they plan to replace the police with roving armed mobs of murderous (and vaguely segregationist) Brown Shirts. Their little experiment in Seattle was the perfect microcosm of what their world would be. Then again, as noted in the second sentence we’ve seen experiments in liberal havens (I suppose some smartass in the comments will try to say that colleges aren’t liberal, in total contradiction to every liberal out there who proudly touts their college degree and insist college causes people to become liberal (yes, even liberals say college makes you liberal, they claim it’s because you are educated and exposed to more cultures)). Part 2 of the equation is that, it is a fact, Black neighborhoods tend to be higher crime areas so that is where police will be. Police go where the crime is. Regardless of why, the police are there to respond to what happened today, not over generations (or as Joe Biden put it, “It doesn’t matter whether or not they are victims of society… So I don’t want to ask, ‘What made them do this?’ They must be taken off the streets!”). Politicians like Joe Biden who gave us that quote are supposed to be working on systems to handle what led to the crime problem. Something made people grab a gun and start shooting, grab a knife and start stabbing, and at that point the only reason you’d demand to abolish police and send in psychologists is if you have the stomach for a high body count. Though, when the Left has its anarchy, they beat people the way Tyre Nichols was beaten by armed thugs (and while they want to ban you from having guns, they are happy to use them. While they demand gun control, they violate laws by handing guns to people who legally should not have them and then Democrat politicians praise them after they violate gun control laws those Democrats demanded). So you’d think they’d be the FIRST to scapegoat humanity’s immaturity when it comes to being in power.

(another note- ABC’s supplemental coverage that they interrupted Jeopardy! for was sure to point out that EVERY police officer was evil. So they say that all cops are bad, even have an expert who agrees that police will be seen as “occupiers” rather than legitimate law enforcement, but please don’t riot.)

I guess they got tired of people talking about Biden’s classified documents so they created the Atlanta Antifa riots, and some of their sister riots within which a Democrat leader’s son got arrested for assaulting police. Spread hate for the police so everyone will agree with the Antifa cause- overthrowing democracy (y’know, that stuff they accuse Republicans of). Or maybe this is to distract from Project Veritas revealing that Pfizer thought about creating new COVID variants so they can make new vaccines while acknowledging COVID will be profitable for years… and while assaulting Project Veritas journalists (but as you know from the Omicron variant, the vaccines Pfizer makes for their variants would only really work on their own variants, so they would be useless and unprofitable… and Pfizer doesn’t do anything that isn’t profitable).

Segment 2 – Is It Really The Same?

They went out of their way to try and build the Pelosi attack video as being the same as the Tyre Nichols video. Getting hit with a hammer and being beaten to death by five armed people are very different. I don’t know what kind of sick mind would try to equate the two (they said both videos were equally as disturbing).

Speaking of Paulie, this video was the fakest thing I have ever seen. I have been in fights and struggles over objects, this was not one of those. It was like Paul and the attacker were just standing around waiting for police to show up. Paul clearly wasn’t struggling, had a free hand the whole time while the attacker had two hands on the hammer, so why didn’t Paul grab an object and wallop the attacker? And the story behind it? Bogus. The attacker spent several minutes trying to beat their way into the house before body slamming their way through the glass. No neighbors heard this, Paul didn’t hear it. Have YOU ever heard glass being pounded on or shattering? It is LOUD. And look at where they say the guy broke-in: if it happened as alleged, why does it look like it was blown outward? Why is the hole too small for someone to fit through and too distant from the door to be of any use except to Reed Richards? And then the guy catches Paul in his bed, but lets Paul get out of bed, grab his phone, and lock himself in the bathroom? What kind of idiot is this attacker? Oh but it gets better- Paul decides to leave the safety of his bathroom after calling police. He didn’t call the security for the gated community who’d have a faster response time; he called the police. Then left the bathroom. We know Paul isn’t that dumb, as he keeps making stock trades at the exact right moment as if he had the inside track, but that would be illegal so Paul must just be smart and quick-witted.

The story concludes with what we see on the bodycamera footage. Paulie and his buddy made their way to the front door, where they were just kind of chillin’ with the hammer limply dangling between them, with Paul grabbing casually with one hand while the intruder had both hands on it, with the attacker laconically letting Paul open the door for police and Paul nonchalantly welcoming the police. Then when police say put the hammer down, now that the attacker is on camera and the item has been identified he attacks. Let me remind you that this man is half of Paul’s age, Paul is not particularly in-shape, yet we are supposed to believe that he singlehandedly (literally, as he only used one hand) kept the attacker from using his hammer until the police were there to witness events.

Did I mention the attacker is described by those who know him as a leftwinger living with a BLM supporter, and that the alleged blogs he maintained that showed him as a rightwinger only existed the day he was arrested (keep in mind he was arrested in the morning).

This phony, fabricated, staged sideshow that makes amateur actors on public television acting out a child’s script look believable is what ABC News says is equal to the brutal death of Tyre Nichols.

Segment 3- Whose Fault?

They started presenting this story as neutral, told everything relevant to it, but then they shoehorned in a reference to how Israel has “its most rightwing government in history” (that is either exactly what the anchor said or almost exactly what they said, I did not write it down as I was eating at the time) in such a way that it seemed to be their attempt to justify the shooting.

Conclusion

Out of this (and other) randomly selected news broadcasts from ABC, there’s huge bias to their reporting. Too much to just be coincidence, and it taints how the public sees the story. Fox News or Newsmax or somebody needs to get on these broadcast stations. As more and more people cut their cords and switch back to antennas, this is a growing market and should be entered.
