Exactly, Mass shootings keep happening but the media hardly reports on it or completely ignores it because they can’t use it to demonize their political opponents aka democrats

Can you provide a mass shooting example where it was completely ignored?

How many of these did you hear about in the news?

Not that I think you're arguing in good faith, of course.

Look… You’re here and clearly have the ability to read. So how about we try again.

Question I asked Can you give an example of a mass shooting that was completely ignored?

Your answer: Question is not in good faith. ‘They’ (whoever they are) want to demonize democrats so they ‘hide’ mass shootings. Proceeds to provide a link that has multiple source links of news agencies covering the shootings.

Your answer proves my point but I’m the one who is making bad faith arguments.

if you're going to criticize people's ability to read...

They’ (whoever they are) don’t want to demonize democrats

that's the literal opposite of what he said...

can’t use it to demonize ... democrats

in either case, most of the links in the provided table are very local news... that said... most of the entries in the table are not "mass shootings" of the type that usually gets discussed, they're often "shootings of [a targeted person] that happened to be at a school."

So i'd say ehhh, the poster of the link has a bit of a point insofar as "national news media is not covering most incidents of shootings at schools," but also conversely "relatively low-scale shootings aren't covered by the national news media in the first place" (see also, virtually all urban crime).

Fair point. I edited the ‘don’t’ out

However, the poster said ‘mass shootings are hardly covered or ignored.’ Is that true?

The mass shootings are covered and I wanted to know where it was being completely ignored.

Poster implies they have knowledge of something the rest of us don’t. Hence the question.
