Perpetuating a false narrative for riot's sake

It doesn't help when the media screws up, reporting something that never happened. It's quite another brand of craptastic LIES to advance a false narrative and continue stirring the pot of misperception, or most likely worse...
TopRightNews: An “eyewitness” in Baltimore delivered a chilling account on Monday of how a police officer chased down an unarmed black man and shot him in the back.

She told her stunning account to millions of viewers on live TV.

There’s only one problem: it never happened.

Baltimore Police were forced to correct the record after Fox News reported a police-involved shooting of a fleeing suspect. Police said no one was shot before they arrested the suspect, though a gun was recovered at the scene.
Listen to her...she's convinced the so-called 'boy' is dead, when no man was shot...



The only weapon she saw was the officer's drawn. Never mind the assailant's? My goodness, the hatred police have to deal with in these bastions of the country.

Part of the problem, perhaps?
