as for the rest, it's your opinion at this point that it could be racially motivated police work, but i've not seen one fact that bears that out. probably more a case of the police treating this as a non-crime under the stand your ground law. change the law, which in turn changes the scope of investigations. i have no doubt the scene was treated as a crime scene, but perhaps not as a murder scene. of course hindsight shows there's more to the story.

I never said you got your info from Fox, any more than I said you did from NBC; I just used those as pretty blatant examples of a media outlet shaping a story to fit a pre-shaped narrative (though in the NBC case, someone did get fired, and rightfully so; it was a stupid thing to do).

Yes, hindsight is showing there may be more to the story; the thing is, had the story not been picked up by the public and carried forward, none of the stuff coming out might ever have.
