Media outlets initially avoided mentioning that shots were fired at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday where former President Donald Trump was escorted away with blood dripping down his face after an apparent assassination attempt. The Trump campaign released a statement shortly after the shooting that Trump is “fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.” Footage of the incident showed Trump ducking behind the podium before being escorted away by Secret Service with blood on his ear. He raised his fist in the air several times as he left. Secret Service agents shot and killed the suspected gunman, law enforcement officials said, according to The Wall Street Journal. One other person reportedly died at the rally as well.

The Washington Post said Trump was “escorted away after loud noises” at the rally. People Magazine said there were “loud bangs” at the rally. USA TODAY said “loud noises startled” the former president and the rally crowd. Senator March Rubio (R-FL) criticized a post to X from CNN that did not mention loud noises or shots. “Really? No mention of the attempt to kill him?” Rubio posted on X. “Another one!” Rubio posted in a separate tweet pointing to a different headline. Some political commentators criticized the media as well. “The media is absolutely s***ing the bed,” said Tom Bevan, president of RealClearPolitics. Many of the media outlets later updated their headlines as more details about the shooting came out. “Loud noises” is the talking point the press have settled on for their headlines.

President Joe Biden took a significant amount of time to release a statement on Saturday after an apparent assassination attempt against President Donald Trump was shot at a political rally in Pennsylvania. “I have been briefed on the shooting at Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania,” Biden said nearly two hours after the incident happened. “I’m grateful to hear that he’s safe and doing well. I’m praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information.” “Jill and I are grateful to the Secret Service for getting him to safety,” he added. “There’s no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it.” Biden made subsequent remarks during a live press conference where, at the end of the event, he refused to call it an “assassination attempt.” Biden REFUSES to call someone shooting Trump an "assassination attempt" pic.twitter.com/UMePucHhEr — Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) July 14, 2024 The sound of shots rang out as Trump appeared to grab around near his ear and he quickly dropped to the ground as he was instantly swarmed by Secret Service agents. Once Secret Service agents got him up, they were in the process of rushing him off stage when he stopped them so he could deliver a message. “Wait! Wait! Wait!” Trump said to the agents. Then looking at the thousands of supporters who showed up, he raised his fist and shouted: “Fight! Fight! Fight!” Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said that Trump was “fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility.” He said that Trump “thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act.”

Former President Donald Trump released a statement on Saturday after being shot at a political rally in Pennsylvania in what federal law enforcement officials are investigating as an assassination attempt. “I want to thank The United States Secret Service, and all of Law Enforcement, for their rapid response on the shooting that just took place in Butler, Pennsylvania,” Trump said in a statement posted to social media. “Most importantly, I want to extend my condolences to the family of the person at the Rally who was killed, and also to the family of another person that was badly injured. It is incredible that such an act can take place in our Country.” “Nothing is known at this time about the shooter, who is now dead,” he continued. “I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear. I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin. Much bleeding took place, so I realized then what was happening. GOD BLESS AMERICA!” This is a breaking news story; refresh the page for updates.
