Wrong again. One is
" a news article reporting a real life event. " i.e a defenseless horse being cruelly shot and killed with an arrow that was minding it's own business and that should have been safe in it's own compound. Markus wasn't phrasing anything except in your mind. You are saying the shooting of a horse was " depicted ? " Further, why " knitpick " at all ?
With regards to consuming informational medium, in years past, Soviet Russia " penalized " it's masses most severely for " consuming " any news except that from Pravda, Tass or any other officially sanctioned news outlets.
