An ABC News reporter, Aaron Katersky, is facing backlash and calls for termination after a report on the Minneapolis school shooting at Annunciation Catholic School, where 23-year-old transgender shooter Robin Westman killed two children.
Katersky noted that Westman left a video manifesto revealing an obsession with past school shooters, criticism of Israel, and nihilistic statements, with weapons inscribed with racial slurs and the names of mass shooters, including President Trump’s name.
However, Katersky omitted Westman’s explicit disdain for Trump, including a reported “k*ll Donald Trump” message on the guns, leading to accusations of misleading reporting.
The omission sparked outrage online, with Donald Trump Jr. posting on X, “WTF is wrong with these people!???”
Critics, including Daily Caller editor Vince Coglianese, labeled the report a deliberate misrepresentation, while Fox News’ Mary Katherine Ham and Guy Benson called it “irresponsible” and “anti-journalism.”
Breitbart’s Matthew Boyle demanded Katersky’s immediate firing, amplifying the controversy over the report’s framing.
