Do you think the media got a free pass to bully the Covington kid?

[Anonymous]

I know this is an old story, but why were they given a free pass to crucify him when they didn't investigate it right?

And does anyone know if Sarah Beattie got away Scot-free with this comment? It's pretty bad to encourage this stuff.

This is the kid who just smiled at a Native American guy with a MAGA hat on and he ended up getting punched in the face.

I find it very hypocritical that the same people who encouraged this behavior against this kid got angry when someone disagrees with Greta Thunburg as if such an action was worse than punching her in the face.

Refresh my memory; who is the covington kid?

The maga hat kid, who was accused of racism against the Indian elder.

Oh yeah, and they jumped all over him and it turned out to be totally misinterpreted. Unfortunately getting a hot story seems to take precedence over whether it is actually true.

[MrTaboo]

Yes, like almost all stories.
