Edit: An earlier version of this article used a headline noting that Trump had publicly called for the death penalty in the New York attack, but not the Las Vegas shooting in particular. That discrepancy is probably related to the fact that the Las Vegas shooter is dead. We regret the error.


"probably"

Jokes on you because you can most certainly DP a dead person, but I wouldn't recommend it.

At this point, I am willing to think they write stupid shite like this JUST for the clicks they generate.

you have to start wondering about the entire staff's intellectual capacity. some guy wrote it, others proof read it, and then someone read it to approve it for publication

no one thought "hey that guy's already dead, duh"

and then upon realizing their error, they're still not sure...it is PROBABLY related to the fact that paddock is dead

jesus

fricking

There is no probably...they fricked up on an epic scale that they were so eager to get a gotcha question on him because he called for the death penalty on the murdering brown man and not called for one on the murdering white man so they could pull the race card they actually forgot he was already dead...

I don't think it is. you don't get the benefit of the doubt after having written an article where you didn't even consider such an obvious fact

moreover, the self aggrandizing media...oh now they have a sense of humor?

I almost feel bad for whoever wrote that...almost

T-level is suspect with their editorial staff.

It doesn't make any sense if it's not, and that part was probably written by someone pissed that he/she is having to write it due to a coworker's idiocy.

checked his twitter...dead fricking serious

and it's unusual to retract fake news with a joke followed by "we regret the error"

you explicitly acknowledge the error. I thought journalists were so serious. guess not.

dude is getting the bidnass on twitter
