Explain to me...why are reporters no longer *reporting* the names of criminals who have been arrested for things like, oh, shooting protesters at Trump rallies, or setting fires to Trump real estate.
Hmmmm....
Let me explain how cops reporters work. They go to the police station every single morning early, and they review the log, which they have access to. Then they go back and they write up whatever they're writing up.
The names are on there. Now for some outlets, the newspaper only runs with what they run with. If they have a cop log, they may or may not list names. They may or may not list certain crimes...crimes committed by juveniles, for example, or UUMV or whatever.
But if you are doing a STORY then you include the names of the adults.
So why are they not including the NAMES of defendants in these stories?
Our media have become the enemy of America.
"A man was taken into custody Wednesday night after arson investigators found devices set to start two separate fires to Trump International.
"The suspected arsonist is facing charges of first-degree arson and burglary, Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Steve Summers said.
"The fires brought more than 45 Clark County Fire Department personnel, arson investigators and Metro detectives to the hotel bearing the president’s name."

The man who clocked the kid in the head with a bike lock was never identified, either. Or pursued, it seems. Likewise the person who shot a Trump supporter in the stomach at Milo's gig. In fact, THAT person hasn't even been charged with a crime. He wasn't even LODGED. He shot someone in the fucking stomach! He admitted to doing it! Yet nobody knows his name, he wasn't arrested, and he hasn't been charged.
