[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, all the Murdoch outlets are pushing this story. [/quote]

It isn’t just the Murdoch companies. It’s the entire right-wing media conspiracy Hillary spoke accurately about back in the 1990s.

It’s actually amazing how predictable it is. What wedge issues are they going to blow out of proportion and then cry bias that the professional news media isn’t following suit?

It’s a little like the Daily Wire’s bizarre fascination with culture war stories about Northern Virginia. The right wing media complex is hell-bent on disinformation [/quote]

I agree that right wing media exacerbates wedge issues.

But as a dc resident, a reader of crime stats, and basically someone who lives where the crime is happening, I wish you could put aside your own bias on this issue.

Can you elaborate how you lean? For example , Are you broadly in favor of restorative Justice over incarceration? Do you deny crime is rising? Even the Mexican embassy warned its citizens about massive increases in crime and they’re not right wing. I mean Wapo reports on it. It is happening. You just seem to want to deny it because maybe it puts a dent in your views of progressive criminal justice reform efforts, which tend to be lenient.[/quote]
