Nets LIE About Kenosha Shooting, COVER-UP Attacking Rioters
27th August 2020
Just after midnight, in the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin turned deadly after a teenager allegedly killed two and injured a third. The protracted incident was an apparent case of self-defense (though he was charged with first-degree intentional homicide), as the teen was fleeing from a mob of violent rioters. But the viewers of ABC, CBS, and NBC were treated to lies and misinformation during their evening newscasts later that day.
Video evidence from multiple angles show 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse running into a parking lot as a violent rioter chased after him and threw something at him. As the assailant got closer, Rittenhouse turned and fired his rifle. The 17-year-old was then chased down the street as a violent mob attacked him. He fell to the ground and was beaten with a skateboard by one assailant and another brandished a handgun at him. Again Rittenhouse defended himself with his rifle.
But that’s not the story that was told to network news viewers.
