Rules

Follow the aussie.zone rules
We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

In short:

UnitedHealthcare chief executive Brian Thompson was shot dead out the front of a hotel on Wednesday in what police are calling a "premeditated, targeted attack".

The first unmasked photographs of a person of interest in the case have been released by the New York Police Department.

Multiple US media organisations, citing unnamed investigators, say the ammunition used to shoot Mr Thompson were inscribed with the words "deny," "defend" and "depose".

I have learned to judge a media's opinion on someone by the picture they use next to the article to manipulate people's opinion. I don't think they could have used a more flattering picture in this case. This is from a store camera, I doubt all the frames show him with a huge charismatic smile on his face .
