I think the media is bracing itself.

They know Rittenhouse is going to be raking in hundreds of

I expect to see more of this as the lawyere tally the potential legal liabilities. I hope that a shadow team has been collecting legally admissable screenshots/clips for Rittenhouse. The MSM/Tech bastards have been known to go back and edit articles without stated updates/retractions.

I don’t think he’s going to have to push very hard.

AP should have said the defendant’s testimony at trial was not disproved at trial.

We might say, "SHHHHHHHHHHH! Don't give them ideas," but that cat is already miles out of the bag with their use of the term "erroneously."

They could start a new paper or wire service just for corrections from the corrupt media.
