Washington Post Smears Dead Man To Justify Police Brutality in Cincinnati
Courtland Milloy's editorial in the Washington Post marks a new low point in the treatment of police brutality by the press. A man is beaten to death with most of the killing blows comming as the man lay motionless on the ground. In response the Washington Post condemns the man for having taking drugs and blames that (even though according to officials he wasn't high when he was killed) for the police's actions.
"And what we saw on that police video was a predictable result from a drug with its own special ways of killing and getting people killed. "

"the drug had been ingested days earlier and that Carpenter was not high when he was killed. "
