Dallas was in shock early Friday after gunmen shot and killed five police officers and wounded seven during a peaceful protest Thursday night over fatal police shootings of black men in other states. In light of the events in Dallas overnight, I’m going to try and give readers a sample of the local coverage there via the Dallas TV stations’ Facebook page timelines.
Keep in mind that this situation is developing as we speak.
I visited the Facebook pages of the four major network affiliates in Dallas at around 7 a.m. ET today to see what the stations were posting to their timelines.
If any of the Dallas TV stations want to bring to my attention some element of their coverage or their marketing of this event as it unfolds throughout the day, I will do my best to update TVNewsCheck immediately.
