No, The Iryna Zarutska Murder Doesn't Show The Failure Of Mainstream Media

Recently, a very tragic video went viral on social media. In it, a Ukrainian refugee, Iryna Zarutska was sitting on a train, looking at her phone, when a mentally ill homeless man, Decarlos Brown Jr., stabbed her to death completely unprovoked. She wasn’t aware that anything was the matter until she was stabbed in the neck by a violent murderer who crept up behind her.

It’s a tragic story. A woman was stabbed to death for absolutely no reason. She did nothing to provoke Brown and wasn’t even aware in the moments before her death that he was planning on plunging a knife into her neck for absolutely no reason. This was a woman who fled Russia’s crimes in Ukraine, only to be pointlessly murdered as she was going home from work...
