I agree on that.

Were they recently updated possibly due to receiving backlash from their viewers? Also, how do you still account for the sources I linked to above, knowing full well at the time of reporting that info was out there? I did an extensive search on that incident from various left-leaning sources, and did not come across any of those you linked to above.

The Independent is a questionable source by the way- [mediabiasfactcheck.com]

The ABC one definitely looks like it was recently updated.

What is Metro? Never heard of them before. They certainly aren't one of the mainstream sources.

The New York Post, seriously?? That's a rightwing source, and not exactly a credible one at that. The point of this post was to prove bias in the well known leftwing sources, and of course rightwing sources included a photo of the shooter, which should come as no surprise. I will give you some benefit of the doubt on that though as it was my fault for not directly specifying that the focus was strictly on leftwing sources. Again though, it should come as no surprise rightwing sources were quick to publish pictures of the shooter.- [mediabiasfactcheck.com]

Never heard of the St. Louis Dispatch before.

Looks like the ABC7 one was recently updated, which begs the question if such a move was politically motivated due to word getting out there that the mainstream medias were not releasing photos of the shooter, so it was time for a PR correction. How's about the ABC Chicago one I linked to above, at the time that one was published the identity of the shooter was known, yet no image of him in that one. Sorry to sound skeptical there, but looks like some PR editing stunts are in play there...

What is Meaww?? Turns out they're another rightwing source that isn't exactly trustworthy- [mediabiasfactcheck.com]

Again, Law & Crime is not considered one of the mainstream media sources, aside from being yet another source I had never heard of before. At least though they appear to be a more credible source.

As for the GMA, looks like another recent article from last night, and why do I suspect a PR move was also in play there? Fair enough, I'll give you this one though.

So if I didn't specify earlier (and that no one could have figured out on their own what should have been an obvious move from me, and what I was alluding to), let me specify now that when I say mainstream media sources I am referring to ones like MSN CNN CBS ABC and FOX. We aleady know lying FOX News was going to publish photos of the shooter, but why didn't the others though, what's their excuse for not doing so immediately as soon as the shooter's identity became known? Most of your sources were from The Independent, which isn't even an American source, and once again not exactly a credible source at that.

Then you linked to a few rightwing sources above, which rather surprised me coming from you. Aside from two of those, the others were questionable, and it looks like the two that were legit were also recently updated. How's about some sources from say Oct 26th or so, around the time the details on the shooter became known. And also I'll ask again... how do you rationally account for the sources I linked to above, knowing the photos of the shooter were available at the time they were published, yet it appears those sources went out of their way to not share any photos of the shooter? Until someone offers a reasonable explanation to all of that, I stand by what I previously claimed, and there's enough evidence there to support my claim. I'll even script you some backup from Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum (@Buttercup, @Garban), as I suspect neither of them actually took the time to scrutinize the links you supplied, and went along with what you said as that be the side of the argument they wish to side with. So if you could rationally explain the discrepancy I pointed out in the OP, I'd like to see it. Would like someone to explain to me why those sources did not want to post any photos of that shooter when just about every other time a mass shooting occurs they don't hesitate to get all the details out to the public.

@SpikeTalon I don't care really, the Point is there is Nothing such as a Pattern! Just shared first page of Google founds, really didn't try hard to proof anything!

@Diaco Okay, well I appreciate your honesty, and I too did a search on Google, and aside from the New York Post article none of the others you had linked to showed up for me. Maybe pattern isn't the best word to use there, but from what I saw something doesn't seem right there, and looks like the sources I linked to in the OP deliberately withheld photos of the shooter for politically correct motives, as they generally do not do the same to other mass shooters. Also, generally speaking I wouldn't care much about such topics either, but cannot just ignore what appears to be a blatant example of political correctness in the mainstream medias. Thank you again for taking the time to honestly reply.
