> As the hours have passed and the manhunt has continued to come up short, some commentators have started creating a mythology about the killer, who has stayed ahead of the NYPD and all its cameras. The victim ran a business that effectively decides which medical care its customers can and cannot get. Commentators who dislike the American health-insurance system are using Thompson’s death as an occasion to condemn the industry’s conduct, as if the assassin were a modern-day Robin Hood.
Ah, and now it's time for settling into that good old corporate media management of the Overton window. The reaction to this event definitely isn't an immediate society-wide outpouring of energy from everyone being thoroughly frustrated with the healthcare racket specifically, and the utter lack of corporate accountability in general. No, it's just a small faction of "some commentators" who "dislike the American health-insurance system" creating a "mythology" only after "the hours have passed". Everyday upstanding people all believe that it's downright shocking how a member of the corporate class that has managed to except themselves from every other form of accountability has suffered this escalated attempt at accountability. He had a family, don't you know!
