Austin/Central TX shooting(s)
« on: December 06, 2023, 09:26:36 AM »
Media has been usually quiet about this one
Anyway 6 dead 3 injured in Austin TX after a man apparently went on a day long shooting spree. Toll could rise as they're still searching for victims. Suspect is in custody.
But also what caught my attention was not seeing the usual media narrative being screamed from the rooftops. Makes me wonder about the details not being something they can use to push the narrative.

Should have worded that

Makes me wonder about the details not being something they can twist to fit the narrative.
