KASIE HUNT: And even now we’re just seeing this like the backpack maker is getting threats for– the CEO of of Peak Design because they helped identify the shooter.
Aw man what the fuck? I’ve had a peak design backpack for nearly a decade, and it’s bar none the BEST everyday commuting backpack I’ve ever owned… and this makes me not want to buy their shit anymore.
Edit: on further investigation it sounds like the whole PD CEO thing is likely make up of whole cloth and not real
Yeah, they said there was no identifiable serial number on those bags. This was just a hoax.
It's false.
Yeah - fair, I didn’t look into corroboration of that statement. Sounds like people just scoped the backpack (as did I, almost immediately) and perhaps just spun some yarn. The Peak Design CEO gave a relatively reasonable conservative (in terms of the context - not politically, per se) of “murder bad but I would call the legal counsel we have on retainer before doing anything, if I had been asked for anything, which I have not”
Wow that was the least biased, most sensible news segment I've watched since that fat fuck got reelected or some guy perforated a billionaire in public.
every once-in-a-while they'll let us have to table scraps to make it look like the legacy media isn't COMPLETELY out of touch.
I don’t know. I still found it very self serving to power. The segment still defends CEO’s who do bad things, offers expanding the police to tackle a crime wave that isn’t really happening (police only serve the to defend people like brian thompson, look at their response to his death as an example) and, it still encourages the working class to betray their class by saying that snitching to the authorities the identity of the alleged killer is good. The pro-power slant was still very obvious to me.
