LMAO: Satirical Cartoon Takes Dead Aim At Fake News Handling Of Cop Stories
Clash Daily ^ | June 12, 2020 | Wes Walker

It’s every cop-meets-black-man story they’ve ever told rolled up into one.

It’s brilliant.

A cop has his gun drawn, pointed at his own reflection in bulletproof glass, and the ricochet hits himself in the groin.

There’s a memorable catchphrase uttered in the moment.

It’s caught on film. And it becomes a CNN story… complete with the logo and everything.

Then we get to see the story evolve from a simple misunderstanding.

To a story about a victim… To a story about a villainous cop… Followed by a lot of TV talking heads shouting at each other.

A lot like how it really happens.

(Fair warning, the clip has a lot of profanity.)

This captured the whole CNN fake-news experiment so brilliantly… and like most of the best art, it takes swipes at people on both sides.

The show, for anyone interested, is called Paradise PD.

“...I’m ashamed for laughing.”

Au contraire, Pierre. Not sorry.
