Has anyone offered 1 piece of credible evidence supporting the claim that Wilson acted in some sort of rogue fashion? Seriously

No. Evidence supports this.

You mean the witnesses who the grand jury largely said were making shite up?

The encounter where brown assaulted the owner of the store?

This was from eye-witness testimony, but the autopsy proved it to be false.

Who knows? That's kind of the point. None of us have a lot of info about what happened.
So what do the networks do? Assume a white police officer acted in a rogue fashion and shot an innocent young black man. There is no evidence to support this idea (other than eye-witness testimony saying Brown had his hands up/was running away which later proved to be bull shite). It's ridiculous!

The autopsy cannot prove that Wilson did not fire at MB. Only that no shot struck him clearly in the back, which isn't what anyone is saying anyway.
ETA: One thing I discovered that I didn't know previously: The officer, Darren Wilson, was 6'4", 215 lb muscular build. I always had the impression that he was smaller than Michael Brown.
