Rupert Murdoch is a POS:
Criticism[edit]
The Post has been criticized since the beginning of Murdoch's ownership for sensationalism, blatant advocacy, and conservative bias. In 1980, the Columbia Journalism Review stated "New York Post is no longer merely a journalistic problem. It is a social problem – a force for evil."[48]
Perhaps the most serious allegation against the Post is that it is willing to contort its news coverage to suit Murdoch's business needs, in particular that the paper has avoided reporting anything that is unflattering to the government of the People's Republic of China, where Murdoch has invested heavily in satellite television.[49] However, it has recently allowed criticism of the People's Republic of China and its handling of the Hong Kong protests.

In The New Yorker, Ken Auletta writes that Murdoch "doesn't hesitate to use the Post to belittle his business opponents". He goes on to say that Murdoch's support for Edward I. Koch while he was running for mayor of New York "spilled over onto the news pages of the Post, with the paper regularly publishing glowing stories about Koch and sometimes savage accounts of his four primary opponents."[51]
According to The New York Times, Ronald Reagan's campaign team credited Murdoch and the Post for his victory in New York in the 1980 United States presidential election.[52] Reagan later "waived a prohibition against owning a television station and a newspaper in the same market," allowing Murdoch to continue to control The New York Post and The Boston Herald while expanding into television.
Critics say that the Post allows its editorial positions to shape its story selection and news coverage. Former Post executive editor Steven D. Cuozzo has responded that the Post "broke the elitist media stranglehold on the national agenda."
According to a survey conducted by Pace University in 2004, the Post was rated the least-credible major news outlet in New York, and the only news outlet to receive more responses calling it "not credible" than credible (44% not credible to 39% credible).[53]
The Public Enemy song "A Letter to the New York Post" from their album Apocalypse '91...The Enemy Strikes Black is a complaint about what they believed to be negative and inaccurate coverage blacks received from the paper.
The Post's coverage of the 2014 murder of Hasidic landlord Menachem Stark prompted outrage from Jewish communal leaders and public figures.[54]

lets see how this plays out
Accomplice Liability Law...
Lakeith Smith was 15 years old when he went along with four older friends on a burglary spree. A neighbour called police when the group went into a home in Millbrook, Alabama, and the responding officers surprised the teenagers as they were coming through the front door.
The group turned and fled out the back door, and a shootout ensued. When it was all over, 16-year-old A'Donte Washington was dead with a bullet wound to his neck.
It's never been in dispute that a Millbrook police officer shot and killed Washington - officer-worn body cameras captured the fatal confrontation. A grand jury declined to charge the officer, finding that the shooting was justified.
Instead, Smith was charged and found guilty of his friend's murder. Last week, a judge sentenced him to 65 years in prison. Under Alabama's accomplice liability law, Smith is considered just as culpable in Washington's death as if he had pulled the trigger himself.
"It's sad in my opinion," says Smith's defence lawyer, Jennifer Holton. "The cause of death was the officer's action."

Complicity is the act of helping or encouraging another individual to commit a crime. It is also commonly referred to as aiding and abetting. One who is complicit is said to be an accomplice. But, even though an accomplice does not actually commit the crime, his or her actions helped someone in the commission of the crime.
The concept of accomplice liability means an accomplice faces the same degree of guilt and punishment as the individual who committed the crime. Indeed, accomplices can face the same penalties, including prison time. The key consideration is whether the individual intentionally and voluntarily encouraged or assisted in the commission of the crime, or (in some cases) failed to prevent it.
Elements of Accomplice Liability
While it varies by state, a prosecutor typically must be able to prove the following four elements to convict someone of being an accomplice or aiding and abetting:
The following examples illustrate the many ways an individual may be an accomplice to a criminal act:
Each state's criminal charges will vary, but typically if you takes an active role in the planning of a crime, you could be charged with being part of a conspiracy. A conspirator agrees with others to commit a future crime, while an accomplice assists, in some way, in the actual commission of a crime. Furthermore, unlike accomplices to a crime, conspirators can be guilty even if their plan is not completed.
Example: If a group of individuals gets together, agrees to plan and commit a robbery, and takes an overt action to accomplish their plan (e.g. purchasing a car, guns, and tools for the robbery), they could each be charged with the crime of conspiracy to commit robbery, even if the robbery never happens. However, if and when the planned robbery is committed by the individuals, they could be charged with both conspiracy and robbery (as principals or accomplices, depending on their role in the robbery).

Elements of Accomplice Liability
While it varies by state, a prosecutor typically must be able to prove the following four elements to convict someone of being an accomplice or aiding and abetting:
- A crime was committed by another individual;
- The defendant "aided, counseled, commanded, or encouraged" the other person in the commission of the crime.
- The defendant acted with the requisite mental state in their jurisdiction, for example, knowingly or purposefully, to assist in the crime.
The following examples illustrate the many ways an individual may be an accomplice to a criminal act:
- Serving as the getaway driver in a bank robbery.
- Turning off the alarm system of a jewelry store in which you work, knowing that it will be robbed later that evening.
- Loaning a handgun to someone who you know is planning to commit a crime.
- Directing a vehicle to a dead-end street where you know an armed carjacker is waiting.

"The three men were in "hot pursuit" of Arbery, according to a memo obtained by USA TODAY, written by the district attorney who previously led the investigation into Arbery's death. The attorney initially told police he did not see grounds for an arrest of the men, according to the memo."
"Third,
It appears Travis McMichael, Greg McMichael, and Bryan William were following, in hot
pursuit, a burglary suspect, with solid first hand probable cause, in their neighborhood, and
asking/ telling him to stop. It appears their intent was to stop and hold this criminal suspect until
law enforcement arrived. Under Georgia Law this is perfectly legal, private person may arrest an offender if the offense is committed in his presence or within his immediate knowledge. If the offense is a felony and the offender is escaping or attempting to escape, a private person may arrest him upon reasonable and probable grounds of suspicion."

So he jogged in that neighborhood before (confirmed by people who live there)
He jogs in clothes that aren't meant for jogging (debunks the whole "he wasn't dressed for jogging he must have been up to something")
He didn't take anything from that home being built
The son said f_ n-word after killing Ahmaud
The racist POS has n-word filled posts on his social media pages.
Comments like "That would only be better if they blew that n-word's head off"
Crazy they almost got away with murdering him
