Obviously the mainstream media will immediately publish a wave of retractions to reflect this because they botched the reporting on this incident.

For weeks they pushed the narrative that "the violent riots at the Capitol resulted in the death of five people." But this is wordplay. One died from being shot. Two died from natural causes. Another died from a drug overdose. And the last died from a stroke. So four of the five deaths were caused by unrelated reasons!
