LMFAO they can't even put Luigi's name in the headline?!

[–] meco03211@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

It's got a similar feel to a product placement ad during news coverage of a disaster.

10x better at getting healthcare CEO blood out of Armani suits than the leading brand. Also reported to work on human blood.

Could be strategic. Certain sites filter links with his name.

“In some dark corners, this killer is being hailed as a hero. Hear me on this: He is no hero,” Shapiro said after Mangione was arrested at a McDonald’s in Altoona.

Apparently the internet is a dark corner.

I guess he is only a hero suspect, according to the headline.
Unfortunately Americans chose to vote for the CEO and his friends at the presidential election. Everyone who did, have no right to complain about not receiving healthcare or welfare, or complain about rising prices or loss of rights to the Nazi government they chose themselves.
If you are part of causing the problem you are not allowed to complain about it.

Right? Not a dark corner probably like at least half of Americans

cant seem to find anything that confirms this is actually his website setup by his lawyers. The article just quotes the website and doesn't mention if they asked the lawyers its actually run by them

Luigi Mangione's statement, posted on a website set up by his defense to provide information about his cases, appear to be his first public comments since he shouted to reporters before a court appearance in Pennsylvania in December.

NBC News is not going to say that unless it's true. Failure to vet that claim and having it be false would be bad for NBC in every single way.

It’s full of independently verifiable information. It lists the full names of his legal team and their firm and gives details about his location and all that.

[–] xnx@piefed.social 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

? i can make a blogpost with the names of his legal team and their firm. they don't mention they reached out to them and confirmed its legit or anything

[–] meyotch@slrpnk.net 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

And yet you could from the comfort of your own home for the same amount of effort you spent snarking.

[–] xnx@piefed.social 1 points 3 days ago

Why are you getting offended? I’m just saying the journalist should’ve mentioned they reached out and confirmed it’s legit because currently there’s no way to know this website and message everyone is spreading is actually by luigi and his lawyers

[–] PortoPeople@lemm.ee 25 points 6 days ago

Luigi is a hero.

[–] bizzle@lemmy.world 13 points 6 days ago

His name is Luigi Mangione and he's an American hero.

[–] AI_toothbrush@lemmy.zip 8 points 6 days ago

Why dont they just write his name?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 6 days ago

Someone else already posted it, but I couldn't see it, perhaps because I was blocked for getting super salty about Isreal / Palestine (I was probably viewed as unnecessarily aggressive while raging against Israel and genocide). So, here it is again, in case you can't see that comment.
