Fox News
Substack writer Andrew Sullivan blasted "media narratives" that have dominated both the current and previous news cycles.
Sullivan highlighted the Kyle Rittenhouse murder trial and how the media portrayed the teen as a "far-right vigilante, in the middle of race riots, had gone looking for trouble far from home," resulting in a "shooting spree" that left two dead and one injured.
He quoted the New York Times' reporting from August 2020 that read, "The authorities were investigating whether the [W]hite teenager who was arrested … was part of a vigilante group. His social media accounts appeared to show an intense affinity for guns, law enforcement and President Trump," highlighting "Rittenhouse’s race is specified" while the race of the men he shot, who were all White, were not.
