NY Times Doesn’t Want You to See Shooter's Face
Times management directs staff to “dial back” Luigi Mangione headshots
shooter
suspectFunny that they don’t take this approach with mass shooters.
Alright NYT. You wanna dance? Let's dance!
If I ask a 3 year old with crumbs on his face, if he ate a cookie from the cookie jar, he may think he's beating the system by not lying. By not saying "no".
Cookie crumbs on his face, mouth stuffed. Guilty look on his face. But he never lied. At that age, they don't yet realize that by not answering the question, you answer the question.
So, your plan to NOT publish his words, is to make us think he wrote dangerous things, and a hitlist. Your plan is to make our imagination do the dirty work for you.
So until you publish in full what has been written by him, I WILL let my imagination run wild. I'll assume that he wrote every positive thing that confirms my own biases and makes him a good person.
Hey, did you hear what Luigi Mangione wrote? He admitted to volunteering his time helping the elderly. He admitted to being the face of the revolution. What revolution? The revolution where we care for the sick and disabled. The revolution of empathy. And he killed a man who openly chose humans to suffer for his own personal profit.
That is what he wrote, and the new york times confirmed my biases. They won't even show his face, because it makes TOO MANY panties wet. That is what I believe, and that is what NYT has confirmed. That is what I shall tell everybody, and we as a society will believe. We will continue this revolution of empathy, for all of eternity.
Unless of coarse you want to publish, in it's entirety, word for word, what he wrote. That sure would keep my imagination from running wild.
To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.
I’m tired of seeing it too. Every time I catch a glimpse I have to swap panties
Its a good thing all the merch and swag featuring him is exploding in popularity. Manufactured goddamn consent fucking denied, assholes :)
here we have a rule that nobody publishes the name or face of people suspected of crimes. it's allegedly "not newsworthy". they all get called "the 35-year old", "the carpenter", "the third man", until court proceedings are through and they are convicted.
unfortunately, influence from overseas and people's seemingly rising bloodthirst seems to be changing that.
I think it's relatively common in EU, unless the suspect has already been somehow outed, or has gone public. But typically, suspects and victims aren't named.
The line between the people and the corporate/political elites is getting more defined and visible every day. I hope people notice.
The contradictions of Capitalist system cannot be hidden anymore
Funny how they never mind sharing every minuscule detail of school shooters. Hmm.
Do they not want people to compare his eyebrow to the eyebrows in the surveillance photo?
Isn't it because we don't even know yet if it was him?
It’s because people are thirsting for him and it’s not the response they wanted. Attractive people are sympathetic.
I don't think people really care if he did or not
- if he did it, good. they deserve it. free him
- if he did not do it, why the fuck are hussling the wrong guy? free him
No amount of regime whore spinning will change that
I do wonder if it would be same if he was ugly. I do admit him being hot makes me lean to his side, although I was alteady defending his ideals before the Internet revealed his shirtless pics.
Read. the. article.
ken klippenstein has done some good journalism
Imperial mouthpiece gonna imperial mouthpiece.
Besides the New York Times' inflated view of its ability to de-amplify a crime that practically everyone is already talking about, the internal chat sheds light on the other arguably bigger reason the media shies away from disclosure: its fear of antagonizing the sources it relies upon for scoops. "My source asked last nite that we not publish the whole thing," reporter Andy Newman wrote in the Times chat.
Thought after I read that: "When have they not done that?
They’re afraid. Good.
This suspect is fine, though?
This is the genius who left his plans in his browser history.
Everyone lacks common sense here.
They should probably have a word to the prison he's being held in then TBH. It's like Paris Fashion Week over there with the amount of photos of him they're taking.
Does anybody have a screenshot of the chat the article is referencing? It's a slack chat with journalists iirc
The screeshot was at the top of my feed yesterday and now I can't find it anywhere
Edit nvm it's ay the bottom of the article yaaay
