A man with a long history of criminality and violence gets his neutralized by law enforcement after threatening them with a knife. The local TV station's social media feed describes the deceased as a family man, father and husband. A photo accompanied the article. Guess which photo they chose to run along side the article.

A

If you guessed B, congrats. You too can be a TV station social media coordinator.

I wonder why the initial article didn't portray him as the robber and assaulter that he was. His own moms had a restraining order against him at 1 point.

On a positive note, many deserving kids from the Philly hood are now sporting new Nike sneakers and watching big screen TVs. Not so positive if it was your store that was looted. Social justice. Coming to a neighborhood near you.

Say his name. Walter Wallace. Criminal since 2006.
