MSNBC Stealth Edits ‘Laken Riley’s Killer Never Stood a Chance’ Headline

MSNBC Stealth Edits ‘Laken Riley’s Killer Never Stood a Chance’ Headline

It’s now “The guilt of Laken Riley’s killer was never in doubt.”

MSNBC came under fire when an article by legal analyst Danny Cevallos had a headline that could be taken as sympathetic towards Laken Riley’s murderer.

‘Laken Riley’s Killer Never Stood a Chance’

You can tell by the sub-headline that the article would explain why the judge found illegal alien Jose Antonio Ibarra, 26, guilty of murdering Augusta University student Laken Riley.

Cevallos wrote:

Riley’s murder became a political rallying cry at this summer’s Republican National Convention because Ibarra entered the country illegally in 2022. But for all the political controversy, the outcome of this trial was never in doubt.

The verdict was going to be guilty.

The sentence was going to be life without parole.

For the defense, this was a hopeless case. The defense did the best it could with bad facts. It almost surely knew it was going to lose. That’s probably why it requested a bench (judge-only) trial instead of a jury trial.

However, it’s MSNBC. You cannot blame people for showing disgust towards the headline.

Therefore, the outlet changed the headline.

The original says something about the writer, but the replacement is correct and neutral.

Joe Rogan has been red pilled, maybe not all the way, he will always be a very liberal guy in live and let live, as long as you are an adult, but he has seen the red light and he has begun his journey in Ernest

    No he hasn’t. I’ve listened to him for a number of years and he is still pretty much the same person. He has just finally started paying attention to corruption in government which started over the censoring of comedians, Newsome destroying California and Rogan being attacked over Covid and the progressives trying to get him thrown off of Spotify. He has always been pro gun, pro free speech etc. He is still a social liberal outside of men in woman’s sports brought on by that guy beating the hell out of woman in the UFC.

Only surprise is that they didn’t give him a job anchoring the primetime 7 pm show.

They’re right that it’s a political cause celebre for the right, and so is like trying Trump in NYC with a democrat jury, assuming there’s the corresponding jury here.

Nevertheless the guy is actually guilty. It’s not an obscure crime dreamed up for the person, but a crime with traditional forensics and evidence.

LOL.

“bad facts”. That’s kind of nifty.

You may think you hate the MSM, but you don’t hate them enough.

His DNA was under her fingernails. DUH….. Remember….. the murder rate will go down as more illegal immigrants come into the country. As for the deaths…. just a part of doing business.

Too bad they didn’t charge his accomplices Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Alejandro Mayorkas, without whom the crime could never have happened.

What an upside down, inside out and backwards world MSNBC lives in! It was the victim, Laken Riley, who never had a chance.

She never had a chance to live. The killer will live and have free room and board for the rest of his rotten, worthless life.

MSNBC go to hail.

When you take someone else rights you lose your was the way of the world until the left took over.

If MSNBC had an ounce of humanity, the headline would have been: “Laken Riley Never Stood a Chance”

Donald Trump never stood a chance in Manhattan trial.

Derek Chauvin never stood a chance in his murder trial.

I’m still stunned that Rittenhouse was acquitted.

It’s crap like this that explains why Comcast is offloading MSNBC. The network has become a cash drain and a total embarrassment. Diminishing return-on-investment preaching to the limited audience of coastal, urban, Dhimmi-crat elites.

Why does MSNBC even exist?

      I should point out that the announcement MSNBC was going to bite the dust was the day after Joe and Mika’s job interview at Mar-A-Lago. The pilgrimage of theirs was not a coincidence.

    Not for much longer. It’s been announced they are being spun off from Comcast and the name changed. They won’t be in business in less than a year unless somebody else buys them and who would want to buy a money loser like that with such overpaid “talent”?

I feel bad for Riley ‘s family and the brutal murder she had.
They should be condemned covering a murder to save a Illegals in general. Goes to show Marxism has no feelings for humanity.

It’s been said before but I’ll say it again, you can’t hate MSM enough!

I guess I’m in the minority. I didn’t think the original headline was that bad as he was identified as her killer and no, he never stood a chance which is why he waived a jury trial. The second attempt is better, though.
My problem with both headlines is that neither identify him as an illegal alien. This is why MSNBC is soon to be out of business.
