Washington Post takes heat for story fretting pro-Trump billionaires shaped 'shooting narrative'

The Washington Post is taking heat for a story that said "pro-Trump billionaires have helped shape shooting narrative," following the attempted assassination of former President Trump.

"The right-leaning business community on X, including Elon Musk and hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman, used their megaphones to endorse Trump and fuel storylines about Saturday’s attack," the Washington Post report said.

Trump was nearly assassinated on Saturday after a bullet grazed his ear during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
