Mainstream media burying Ortiz details

That man being a high up drug dealer who hired two guys -- cops -- to do the hit.

Daily Mail in London carried it first and now it is in the NY Post.

Yet not a peep about this in mainstream media. Do they think they can bury this after the cat is out of the bag?

Maybe. Still running with the phony Russian collusion story.

Hell. The Brojos may bury this.

The official narrative is Papi is a hero period, and then must mention the Boston marathon bombing (the evil Islam angle)/

It's a little early to declare that the cat is out of the bag. The Daily Mail is a rag and the NY Post is run by a bunch of Yankee fans still pissed off over 2004. Let's allow a little time for the facts to come out.

"MLB legend David Ortiz was shot Sunday night (Jun 9) in the Dominican Republic, and now police believe he was the target of a hired hit by two local police officers over an alleged affair with a drug lord’s wife.

Dominican law enforcement sources confirmed the planned assassination to the Daily Mail.

The drug lord hasn’t been identified, but police have arrested a man named Eddy Feliz Garcia in connection with the shooting.

Ortiz’s rep Leo Lopez said on Monday (Jun 10) that the shooting, which was initially described as an “attempted robbery,” had nothing to do with a woman, but he did admit it was an “act of hired hit killers.”"

People in the Dominican community told me this morning that the shooting was over a woman. That struck me as right. No attempted robbery and Ortiz was the target. Two men involved. What other reasonable explanation? His rep says it was a hit -- but not over a woman. Over what then?

MSM is staying away from a detailed explanation...simply pushing the narrative that the Dominican is a dangerous place...you know all those black and brown people.

Let the facts come out? From the mainstream media? You're being funny, no?

We'll see. An attack in the middle of a crowded bar doesn't seem like a well planned hit and a motorcycle for a getaway car seems pretty low budget. And "hired hit killers" would be likely to shoot multiple time and probably to the head.

If not about a woman, then what? What are other reasonable explanations?

And forget this "well see" nonsense. The MSM is invested in Big Papi being a hero and will try to avoid details that tar his rep from getting out.

An actual police report after an thorough investigation would provide facts. At that point the MSM can react. And why the hell would the Dominican police talk to the Daily Mail?

Was John Lennon shot over a woman?

No robbery.

A hit in front of dozens of witnesses.

Ortiz clearly targeted.

His own rep said it was a hired hit.

The MSM saying nothing about motive.

What do you think happened?

Or do you have no opinion until the MSM gives it to you?

No and neither was JFK, RFK, nor MLK.

But I don't recall several minor media outlets reporting that they were hit over sleeping with another man's wife (even though at least two of them probably were).

You're expecting papers like the WAPO and NYT to run with a story based on what the Daily Mail claims they were told by the Dominican police? That's not good enough. If the police come out publicly and confirm the story than the MSM will report it.

Has Trump tweeted about Papi yet? If not, was he really shot?

Also, Fox News, which is not part of the MSM, has not repeated the claims made by the Daily Mail.

MSM continues to ignore the most plausible explanation -- the shooting was over a woman . Instead they are giving no reason other than to smear the Dominican as a dangerous place with a high murder rate with a big story on 4 Americans dying there in recent months (none of whom were murdered!).

Watch them operate. Just as when the report came out claiming no Russian collusion they continued to claim there was and when the IAEA reported no Iranian nukes program and they spent day attacking the IAEA and then went back to pretending it was a fact there was such a program.

They really are going to bury this!

If you were an editor at a major, legitimate newspaper you would not approve a "Ortiz was banging a druglord's wife" story based only on the information currently available. If the police provide a report confirming the rumours, the "MSM" can't, and won't, bury the story.

I don't know if the drug lord story is true or not, but the MO of the shooter was not professional. If they followed Ortiz around a bit, they would learned that he didn't have bodyguards. The logical approach would have been to put on some masks and murder Ortiz when he was walking somewhere. Shooting him in a crowded bar would be very likely to result in the guy being tackled and beat up as well. If the hit man is caught it would be likely the drug lord would be implicated so why would he approve such an amateurish scheme?

rofl, you are seriously saying the media portrays blacks and browns in a bad light? funny their mass shooters disappear from the media in a WEEKEND. meanwhile white mass shooters they run stories about endlessly YEARS later.

Homer says the whole Trojan War was over a woman. Possible cop out, historians have concluded, to protect the men who were actually doing the fighting.

False premise. OP is wrong.

As you already know --if your IQ is north of 60-- the 'Russian collusion story' is 100% fact, and more of it is being exposed every Goddamn week.

It wouldn't surprise me, though, if you're right about Papi.
