I think it wasn’t an “accident” at all.
He was a loose cannon and was willing to tell the truth about
a very dishonest mass media.

SassyBratt1 says:

Wow so much damage done to the car! It can’t have a good safety record if
it falls apart like that in a crash.

Lisa J says:

Why is a ROBOT narrating this??

Stevie Ray says:

Isn’t it funny/unusual that all of a sudden Journalist are being knocked
off?
Andrew Brietbart was about to go public about

Michael Luna says:

Another Propagandist dead, so what. Nobody from CBS is innocent. They are
all guilty of disinformation and half truths carefully edited to show their
version of the “truth”. Funny how Yall people are quick to call it a
conspiracy. Do your own research and don’t let this type of rubbish distort
your perception of reality. Cause that’s all its for. Worry about the
impending wars that are being orchestrated as we continue to feed in to
this type of rubbish. Thanks.
