    Good journalists cross-check more than one source before concluding anything. Have they spoken to any witnesses? Is the video fake?

    I think it’s a good thing that the languagr is weak because there aren’t any more evidence (yet).

      There are quite a few videos from different perspectives of the same incident. I do not think that weak language is warranted.

      Perhaps it was at the time of posting, but it’s clear in the video that at least one of Ice clearly fucked up.

        That’s my point. Unless they want to change the title, they have to use weak language if they want to post an article before more evidence shows up.

        They could change it now but they will probably just write a more thorough story to feed the algorithm again.
