Summary
Brian Thompson, CEO of UnitedHealthcare, was fatally shot in a premeditated attack outside the New York Hilton Midtown before speaking at an investor conference.
The gunman, still at large, fired multiple times, leaving shell casings marked with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.”
Authorities suggest Thompson was targeted but remain unclear on the motive. His wife confirmed prior threats against him.
Analysts speculate a possible vendetta tied to his company. The case raises questions about executive security, as Thompson lacked personal protection despite known risks.

We’re on the same page, but sometimes it’s easier to be defensive and downvote. I hope you’ll see what I’m saying.
People aren’t reading the articles…
And media isnt run for profit anymore, billionaires all bought them up to control the narrative, I thought everyone was on the same page about this by now, it’s not 2015 anymore. It’s almost been a decade.
No, you’re incorrectly assuming why they’re doing this but are 3-4 decades behind current motivations.
We’re not, but I’m trying to get us there.
Do I need to explain why this guy:

Wants people to think killing a corrupt CEO matters more than millions dying for corporate profits?
Oh ok
