"Los Angeles police detectives spread out to several parts of Southern California on Friday investigating addresses connect to a gunman..."

Does anyone proofread anything anymore?

No. Copy editors are too expensive and decent software for grammar checking is simply impossible to find.

To be fair, TFA also had the headline "Hollywood Shootout," and yeah, that's the first thing I thought of too.

There is a video on the bottom right of the LA Times blog. (Not the one in the center of the page, a longer one on the bottom right). At about 2:40 a witness clearly describes the shooter as "Shouting Allay Akbar" as he shot.

Why is this no where else in the story?
Would it be in the story if he had yelled "White Power" or "God Bless Donald Trump" or even "What's the Frequency Kenneth?"

It is not politically correct to acknowledge Islamic terrorism. It is offensive to Muslims.

Anyone know what happened with the lawsuit that one of the gunmen families filed? If I remember right they were suing on the grounds that medical attention was withheld or some other bullshiat. Hope to Invisible Man in the sky that they got exactly Jack Shiat.

Or perhaps the important parts of the crazy homicidal muslim asshat are the "crazy" and "homicidal" bits, so that's where the news focuses? Doesn't seem like the muslim bit's particularly important -- barring him being a member of an actual Islamic terrorist organization, it's not the bit that involves having to dodge bullets on your morning commute.

The article mentions he was yelling and shooting. So, the yelling part was important. I am sure the readers would not be interested in what he was yelling.

So that brings up my question. Everything else is equal except the shooter is yelling "White Power!". Does the LA Times mention it? My feeling is yes they would not only mention it they would do so very prominently.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
There was a movie based on this; it starred Ron LIvingston - the guy from Office Space and Band of Brothers.
Pretty good for a made-for-TV one, too.
The more you know...

Great. Now I've got this mental image of someone typing out a post and then reading it back with an exaggerated stereotypical homosexual flair and lisp to see if it reads right.

"The gunman was eventually shot by a detective and an off-duty officer who may have been working on a movie set nearby."

This whole situation is backwards...

Maybe he was shouting 'Ally McBeal'. Maybe he was upset that his favorite show is canceled and never coming back plus he was worried about the future invasion of Earth by Lrrr of Omicron Persei 8.
