'Award-winning investigative journalist Liz Collin sets the record straight. She uncovers what really happened on Chicago Avenue and exposes the truth of the 2020 riots.'

The author bio of Collin on Amazon reads, "Liz Collin has been a truth-teller for 20 years as a multi-Emmy-Award-winning reporter and anchor."

weird that the only other reference to an emmy that i can find is her nomination for a 'midwest' emmy

pretty good start to this thread

So what you're saying is that the author makes good points that you can't refute therefore you are attacking the source instead of the content. Got it.

That Floyd was a large black fella Chauvin had known from another job

. “David Pinney, a former co-worker of both men, told CBS News the two men often "bumped heads" while on shift together at the El Nuevo Rodeo restaurant, which converted its dining room to a dance floor at night with live Mexican music. “It has a lot to do with Derek being extremely aggressive in the club with some of the patrons, which was an issue,” Pinney said.

So what you're saying is you have no clue if the author makes good points so instead of refraining from commenting on something you know nothing about you choose to look like a fool. Got it.

Actually your response is what should have been directed to the Ghost......as I was only responding to the manner in which he replied to the thread. See how that works?

Doesn't seem to bother you when your team does it.

Guess you're just feelin' flirty this morning?

No it was just one of the first things i read when visiting the site, so i was interested to see what other work this person had done.

Highlighting liz and her awards are the most prominent pieces of information on the landing page, more so than anything about whatever the investigation is focused on.

misinformationists don't want you to consider the source

There seem to be several common themes going on in this thread.

Always attack the source when the content is inconvenient to your team.

 

[kidfury]

Always attack the source when the content is inconvenient to your team.

always scrutinize the source regardless of the information (this defines your team)

 

[Autoprax]

Always attack the source when the content is inconvenient to your team.

What if the source is operating in bad faith or just stupid (like you)?

The key to seek multiple sources.

That is what good historians do.

I went to the site and it seems like they are pandering to a right wing audience.

So that makes one take pause.

I predict lots of slanting and narrow frames.

 

[Woke AF]

You would have to read the article to know the content, which you said you never did.
Are you a parody of a low-functioning person 'cuz you are a master of staying in character?
