Judge in Kyle Rittenhouse Case Blasts Media for Stream of Lies in Coverage
The judge hearing the case against Wisconsin riot suspect Kyle Rittenhouse blasted the media for its constant lies and “irresponsible and sloppy journalism” in reporting the case.
Readers may recall that young Kyle Rittenhouse is accused of murder and attempted murder for shooting the leftist anarchists who attacked him during a Black Lives Matter riot in Kenosha, Wisconsin, in 2020.
The Democrat infested prosecutor’s office wants him sent to prison for life as a “murderer” for clearly defending himself from anti-American leftists who were trying to burn down the city. Still, whatever the jury and judge will find about the facts in the case, the judge is blasting the fake news media for its constant lies about Rittenhouse and his actions, as well as the actions of the BLM terrorists that night.
Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Bruce Schroeder warned jurors that the media has thoroughly botched the reporting on this case.
“This case has become very political. It was involved in the politics of the last election year,” Schroeder said in the court session, adding, “To this day, you can go out and read things from all across the political spectrum about this case, most of which is written by people who know nothing.”
“The price we pay for having a free press is a lot of irresponsible and sloppy journalism,” he added, saying that his charge “is not an attack on the media” but to make sure he presides over a fair and impartial trial.
The judge also said he has read some things about the case that have been “perfect,” but that most of the reporting has either been “sloppy” or “deliberately biased” against Rittenhouse.
The media has repeatedly lied about what Rittenhouse did, what the rioters who attacked him did, not to mention the media’s pushing of false information about the guns used in the incident.
