CNN Fans Anti-Cop Hate, Cites Flawed Study Police Shootings | National Review

CNN Fans Anti-Cop Hate, Cites Flawed Study Police Shootings | National Review: CNN is making a desperate pitch to further enflame the ideological war on cops while it still has a sympathetic ear in the White House. The CNN website is promoting a laughably incomplete study of police use of fatal force under the headline “Black men nearly 3 times as likely to die from police use of force, study says.” Utterly ignored in the study and in CNN’s write-up is any mention of violent-crime rates, which vary enormously by race and which predict officer use of force.
