Ann Coulter: Why the New York Times Is Unreformable and Must Die
|
 [Breitbart] Even before The New York Times launched its "All Slavery, All the Time" project, no one could accuse that paper of skimping on its race coverage, particularly stories about black males killed by white(ish) police officers.
Here’s one you haven’t heard about. I happened upon it by sheer accident.
Antwon Rose II was a 17-year-old boy shot by an East Pittsburgh police officer in June 2018 after he bolted from a jitney car that had been stopped by the officer. The Times published about a half-dozen stories on Antwon Rose ‐ or as the Times calls him, "Antwon, who was unarmed."
After the officer was acquitted on all charges in March of this year, the Times ran an article by Adeel Hassan on the verdict.
Here’s what you would learn from the Times:
‐ Antwon was unarmed.
‐ Antwon "was in his high school’s honors program."
‐ Antwon "played basketball and the saxophone."
‐ Antwon "volunteered for a local charity."
‐ In 2016, Antwon wrote a poem titled, "I Am Not What You Think!" which included these lines:
I see mothers bury their sons
I want my Mom to never feel that pain.
‐ A policeman stopped the gold Chevy Cruze Antwon "was riding in" because it "matched the description" of a car "involved" in a drive-by shooting minutes earlier.
‐ The jury consisted of nine whites and three African Americans.
If you read the Times piece, all you would know is that an honor student who loved his mom... was KILLED for the crime of riding in a car similar to one that had just been used in a crime.
Wow. Just wow.
Here are some of the facts the Times left out:
‐ The gold Chevy Cruze Antwon fled did not merely "match the description of" a car used in a drive-by shooting: It was the car used in the drive-by shooting, as proved by surveillance video posted online days after the shooting and shown to the jury.
‐ The video shows 13 shots being fired from the back seat of that exact car, with ‐ according to the prosecutor ‐ Antwon riding in the front seat.
‐ The backseat passenger, Zaijuan Hester, later pleaded guilty to the drive-by shooting.
‐ One of the victims of the drive-by shooting told police it was Antwon who shot him. "The beef was between me and him," William Ross told a Pennsylvania State Police officer. "That car came by, he shot me, I ran to the store."
‐ The jitney driver told police that, right before the shooting started, he heard the backseat passenger ask, "Is that him?"
‐ The gun used in the drive-by was recovered in the back seat of the car.
‐ A stolen gun was found under Antwon’s seat, an empty magazine in Antwon’s pants pocket, and there was gunpowder residue on Antwon’s hands.
‐ The car stopped by the officer was riddled with bullet holes.
‐ The jury that unanimously acquitted the officer was led by an African-American foreman, who stoutly defended the verdict.
None of that made it into the Times story on the trial’s conclusion.
