That story is wrong. It says that “reports that Officer Wilson had a bruised or fractured eye socket are false… A source tells CVV Wilson was taken to the hospital after the shooting. He had Xrays which came back negative. He was treated for a swollen face.”
A swollen face would indicate bruising. That is how it works.
So CNN’s anonymous source says that FNC’s anonymous source is wrong. Too bad we know CNN lies. All. The. Time. Which isn’t to say they don’t have a real anonymous source, or their anonymous source isn’t telling the truth, just that there’s no reason to put any more faith in their anonymous source than in the competition’s.
Also, if after an encounter with a known criminal your face is so badly swollen that you need x-rays, I’m open to the argument that you were in enough danger that you needed to react with lethal force, whether or not you suffered any fractures.
CNN is scrambling. They already made this a nationwide issue by pushing the narrative that he was shot mercilessly in the back with his hands in the air. After that proved false, they didn’t even skip a beat and doubled down on their incredibility.
I find it interesting that Reason, after a week and a half of bashing cops mercilessly and being BFFs with the looters, is now trying to be a voice of reason.

CNN?
I wouldn’t believe CNN if they told me what time it was.
‘Bout the only good thing that leftist extremist bunch has going for them is MSNBC keeps them off the bottom of cable news ratings.

Not sure if I can take them seriously now.
