You can abduct a kid, murder a family, and someone in a newsroom will still wrap themselves backwards around a euphemism to avoid any suggestion that a cop did a crime.

Mad how it was the driver who hit the vehicles but the bullet hit him all on its own. Unlike cars, bullets have agency apparently.

There is near zero journalistic writing here. All of this comes straight from department officials, who held a press conference, and is organized to appear as a story.

For those wondering how the officers were involved, you'll have to get past this vague and misleading headline to find out that nine of them shot a guy who was walking on a freeway with a box cutter.

If your article only gives voices to corporations and cops, it’s marketing not journalism.

@sdut Last sentence in this: “The Sheriff’s Department initially pushed back on the audit, rejecting several of its findings and methodology, but has since said it is working to make the changes.” @Didacopwriteit
No. @sdut reported that two independent law firms and the city auditor found city performed inadequate due diligence ahead of Ash Street lease. Also, IBA report notes the city still has no long-term office space plan
@SDUTmcdonald @sdutOpinion This sounds like due diligence. Didn’t someone from the UT allege that there was no due diligence?
Breaking News: The police chief who oversaw the response to a mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, arrived on scene without his police radio, a law enforcement official said. A tactical team ultimately ignored directives not to breach the classroom. nyti.ms/3Q39KaT

@ThomNBCBayArea @coolgrey @SFPD @nbcbayarea Hi. Why are we saying “officer involved shooting”?
@HomelessnessSD @CityofSanDiego Creating restrictions on people’s mobility while simultaneously telling unsheltered people to leave an area ASAP and/or go to Balboa Park for #housing (?) is: A) Counterproductive B) Counterintuitive C) Business as usual in #sandiego D) All of the above
@thedailybeast Unfortunate that the poor officer at the wheel could not prevent the bloodthirsty van's actions
@thedailybeast This tweet will never not be accurate it seems.
@HomelessnessSD @ToddGloria It's very fitting that the farcical "Homeless Navigation Center" in the failed skydiving simulation building is in the background of this photo. ANOTHER City Real Estate giveaway to private sector.
Why is Mayor @ToddGloria trying to dodge a state law meant to increase affordable housing?
BREAKING: @CityofSanDiego rushing Padres' $1.5B Tailgate Park land deal to avoid state laws requiring more affordable housing units, pushing ahead in violation of new state rules. Fact: @ToddGloria voted for bill 3x when he was in Assembly. Tailgate-gate! laprensa-sandiego.org/tailgatepark
CHP won't say where, when or how, but still, here's an article with a big number @Didacopwriteit

@joybenedict @CBSLA @LAPDHQ I only took like 5 journalism classes in college so I won't profess to be an expert like you, but I definitely recall being taught that just because somebody says something doesn't mean it's true, and fact checking is necessary to confirm claims and details
The @SDMayorsOffice attacks me because I'm documenting and showing you all things thing they don't want you to see.
