    Note the photo shows the left side of his face, and very little blood.

    That's a choice.

    The choice could be that of the organizers who decided where to put the AP photographer.

    Yeah, it was a choice.

      I know how you guys really love to hate on the BBC, but I have to say their reporting of this incident is a lot more straightforward than all the yank stuff.

      I was only joking

        Also, not to be an asshole, but I suspect this is going to clinch the election for Trump.

                The New York Times apparently doesn't think the "a word" is fit to print.

                And they managed to crop out (most of) the American flag.

                The Chicago Tribune's headline doesn't even say that he was shot.

                  What’s the headline if a right winger shot Biden? “Right wing extremist attempts to assassinate Biden”?

                  Education is extremely important.

                      Yeah, @jon-nyc mentioned Reagan’s favorability going up 22% after his assassination attempt. I don’t think Trump’s goes up much at all. Maybe 2%. The electorate is still that divided, and there are still 40% of the population that will vote for actual Hitler over Trump.

                      I’m also not going to say Biden’s candidacy was absolutely saved, but I think it went from being a sure fire removal to highly questionable that he’s removed. Unless the DNC decides to give up on Ohio…

                                        @George-K said in You don't hate the media enough:

                                        I don't get the problem with this one. The headline didn't make the image redundant and so with the combination image and headline, you get the most pertinent information.

                                        Please love yourself.

                                          https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/jul/14/trump-shooting-new-era-political-violence-dangerous

                                          After Trump ducked to avoid the bullets, he was immediately surrounded by Secret Service agents, who closely surrounded him as a human shield. But he rose from the stage, apparently in defiance of their wishes, to raise a fist in the air and yell “Fight!”, Trump was defiant, and calling for revenge.

                                          He called for revenge? Really?
