Fort Bliss Under Scrutiny for Limiting Media Access in Richard Halliday Murder Investigation
August 9, 2020
Date of Investigation Timeline: January 21, 2021
Restricted journalist access raises concerns over bias and potential concealment of crucial facts.
As the investigation into the murder of Richard Halliday unfolds, it has been revealed that Fort Bliss restricted media access, permitting only a selected group of journalists to cover the case. This decision to allow “a limited amount” of journalists has raised serious concerns about the possibility of biased reporting and the military’s control over the narrative surrounding the case.
Such limitations on media access have sparked fears that critical information may be withheld from the public, potentially obscuring the truth about the circumstances leading to Richard’s death. The decision to restrict journalist access is seen by many as a red flag, indicating a potential attempt to manage the flow of information and control the investigation’s portrayal in the media.
