Schools chief: No evidence Nevada shooter bullied:

WCSD Superintendent Evaluates Emergency Safety Plan After Shooting:

Let’s hear it for responsible journalism for once.

A reporter for TV station KTVN in Reno recently asked the school superintendent if the Sparks Middle School shooter, Jose Reyes, was bullied. This was the superintendent’s response…

“There was nothing in our official records about bullying for this child, whether at the elementary school or the middle school. Even the parents recently said there was no indication from what they saw.”

But take a look at the second link I posted. That’s the original story where that quote comes from. That fact is buried in a story headlined about safety plans. It took the Associated Press to change the headline and I’m not a fan of theirs usually.

So that’s the police, his parents, and now the school system who say that he wasn’t bullied. Yet this myth of the bullied school shooter will continue to persist due to the usual practices of the media and the gullible marks who buy into it.
