Ah well done. You’ve found the reporting. You can put your conspiracy / cover up theory to rest. Good effort.

*as much sensationalism as required at any moment.

The only people in the world who manipulate me are my wife, my kids, my Grandson and my Mother, cos I allow them too.

calling sensationalism a little word is a bit funny-ish, in a not laugh out loud way

So you’ve gone from, ‘it wasn’t covered, it’s a stitch up’, to ‘it was only covered in local news’, to ‘it wasn’t covered as much as I’d have liked’.

I like how he's doubled down and kept trying to salvage something even after you made him look like a complete idiot. We could use some of that chutzpah in the Everton team tbh

thanks mate. i struggled to get @Amw79 to understand what `reporting` was as opposed to `sensationalism` and `blanket coverage`. the guy who was shot 9 times in his wheelchair, while it did get some coverage in the Sowerby Bugle it got buried elsewhere. virtually no one has heard of this incident. think about it. - edit- appreciate your input mate, i`ll post some other lesser known instances ?

You've just seen that it was reported in pretty much every major news outlet, and it's still being reported on now as it has had new developments in recent weeks. Maybe the reason a lot of people haven't heard of it specifically is the same reason they don't hear or remember the specific details of the other 20,000 gun deaths that happen in the US on average every year. But no, has to be a conspiracy of silence except without the silence or the conspiracy

Amazing. Despite being shown it being covered internationally at the time, you’re still going the the road of “well I didn’t hear about it, so that means it didn’t get covered enough”.

Internet 101 - never admit when you’re wrong.
