Geee Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Fox News PRESS CONFERENCE, MCALLEN, TEXAS POLICE CHIEF: "The suspect of the incident met our officers at the door, and shot both of our officers, both officers suffered fatal wounds// our officers did not draw their weapons, did not fire, never stood a chance.” So on Saturday, 2 police officers were ambushed and killed in Texas. Their names: Edelmiro Garza, age 45 and Ismael Chavez, age 39. Responding to a domestic disturbance -- in the effort to stop violence, they became its victims. That's the story of many cops' lives. We report it, on this show because we realize the proportion of media coverage on such crimes, compared to other stories, is sorely lacking. When a violent act occurs that fits a narrative, it’s amplified to suit the media need. What need does it serve to report a story of two dead cops? For the rest of the media, very little. So they shrug it off. Fox News won’t. Today we're living in an experiment. One conducted by mad social scientists, where a media and its internet platforms choose stories that manipulate emotion for the sake of clicks. They've put a price on rage and sell it by the minute So the bravery and hardships of law enforcement are ignored in favor of visual content untethered to data but tied to a narrative.

Chief of Department Terence Monahan, the NYPD’s highest-ranking uniformed officer, was admitted to a local hospital with “non-life threatening injuries,” an NYPD spokesman told the New York Post. The department posted footage of the protest and images of injured officers on its Twitter feed. (Snip) “Three officers violently attacked by protesters crossing the Brooklyn Bridge. The officers sustained serious injuries,” the NYPD wrote. “This is not peaceful protest, this will not be tolerated.” National Review has reached out to the NYPD and New York Police Benevolent Association for comment.
