    Kudos to ABC News for not doing the usual “copaganda” thing and overusing passive voice.

      She wasn’t “murdered” or even “killed”, she “died by homicide” - don’t you see the difference?

      Yeah, me neither. :-(

        Are we perhaps getting A/B headlines?

        The title of the article that I get says she was killed in her home by police, and the third line of the lead paragraph says she was fatally shot by a police deputy.

        That’s pretty’s good, especially by centrist media standards, where they’d usually say that a “a woman has tied after a hoke invasion, after an altercation with police “.
