They want to be first. They aren't even clearing the video before showing it. They showed a man clearly dying on live TV. Not down, but getting killed. Fucked up.

just generally asking peoples opinions, as a muslim I feel if this person was muslim or they had a hint of it it would be plastered over the media already

It's definitely looks like a case of domestic terrorism, but you know how this song and dance goes, if the shooters turn out to be white, you'll be lucky to see the media say the "T" word even once.

I just finished The Witcher 3 latest DLC and going to GAF to write about it, then I read this shit. The movement for a reform is basically killed. These murderers are enforcing the stereotypes around black people that they are a bunch of thugs. You can be outraged, and sad about what happened to the guy who was killed a couple of days ago, but doing all this damage goes against what they were protesting against.

It's just a tragic night and I hope that the people who are hurt recover.

I cant believe they showed a cop getting killed on fucking TV.

As if the terrorist blowing himself up wasnt bad enough.

Fuck is wrong with the media in this country man.

They just want that video up as fast as possible, content be damned. It's all about those ratings.

More tinder for the fire. I'm lamenting the aftermath, the hot takes from people who already hate black lives matter.

Generational racial divide seems to have to end in sight.

Only in the eyes of people who were already racists, who's minds were never going to change anyways. Normal people aren't going to condemn all black people because of the actions of 2 men.

Every cop needs to just quit their jobs and find something else relevant to their interests. There's not a single thing left to provide people. It will save lives on both sides and you can just poll the internet or something on how to handle crime.

I'm disgusted with that local news channel

They didn't even have the fucking decency to look at the video before they aired it

Absolutely unjustifiable.

It honestly doesn't matter. The second it would have hit the Internet it would have spread like wildfire anyway. And you know it would have even if the network used more caution in airing the vid.

I agree with the Muslims sentiments here... Its really scary...

Please stay safe Dallas. I have really close friends who moved to Dallas from NJ about a year ago. I hope they are safe.

I really don't get these comments. Do people even realize that Texas is one of the last states to allow open carry? Here is a map showing what states allowed open carry in 2014, before Texas finally allowed it recently. So the "Oh right...Texas" mentality really doesn't make sense other than reinforcing a stereotype.

But they allow it now.

If you see someone with a gun in Texas do you think "How bizarre, that's only been legal to do for two years now!"

Anyone that's watched Nightcrawler will get a sense of how bloodthirsty the media can be just in the name of landing an exclusive.
So long as they don't face a penalty from the FCC, they'll air just about anything with a brief disclaimer.

Welcome beautful toddler, Madison Elizabeth, to the horde!
We tend to get better filter on places like this than the news because they are in the business of being right, not getting it right. Irresponsible reporting done tonight.
