I’m not a conspiracy theorist and I don’t hang around on the hidden forum, so you can’t expect me to be up-to-date on the various apologetics in place which “justify” why a medium full of stories about malfeasance among police officers and police departments, is supposedly suddenly compelled to be silent on whether or not a particular misdemeanour charge was justified in this one case.
Or why news organizations who are only too happy to catch their direct competitors falling for a hoax, are suddenly passing up the opportunity to show how much better investigators their journalists are in this one case.
I do expect you to understand the basic logical concept that criminals and their associates don't go out in public bragging about their criminal activities. And they certainly wouldn't allow it to be investigated or talked about via platforms they control and people they pay. Therefore you can't rationally expect to find such stories on their platforms. You must go to alternatives.
The news organisations that make up the mainstream are owned by a scant few hyper rich people who themselves are largely all on the same page with each other and are implicated in many of the same things. What is mainstream news has nothing at all to do with what's actually true or popular opinion, it has to do with what the people with the ability to write the cheques and pay the broadcasting fees want their employees to talk about and thus how they want the cultural narrative to be shaped.
Alternative media, which often can be just a single person with a camera interviewing people such as how Dan Dicks started with https://pressfortruth.ca/ And Luke Rudkowski started https://wearechange.org/ has far less overhead than them. Especially when you're posting videos to the internet rather than having to pay broadcasting fees or licences. And they also have far more freedom in what they are willing to report on or investigate because no one's holding their livelihood over them.
Remember when the existence of the "Bilderberg Group", the annual meeting of hyper rich commanders of industry, media and government from multiple countries used to be a conspiracy theory associated with people who also believed that the world was controlled by reptillian aliens? Well because too many people now know they exist and how important it is to keep an eye on such groups due to the sheer power and sway they hold over society they made a website to try to look just a little less corrupt and suspicious (While likely moving their real meetings elsewhere to maintain secrecy).
This didn't happen because Fox or CBC or anyone bothered to do any real reporting on them. They in fact were the ones reports that everyone who was interested was just a crazy conspiracy theorist because of course they're part of it. It happened because independent alternative journalists like Luke Rudkowski and Dan Dicks get on planes each year to go ask them hardball question that no mainstream outlet would ever dare ask. While getting their hotel rooms raided and themselves arrested illegally by police and then released all the for daring to investigate. Meeting minutes and other things of their conferences have been leaked in the past, showing that they as a group did in fact set things like the 2003 Iraq invasion and the 2008 housing bubble burst among many other things into motion on purpose for their own benefit.
Eventually enough people became aware of the evidence that trying to continue insulting them as just crazy people only served to prove the point that it's a shadowy group that has something to hide and is not working in the public interest. These are the types of things that the fake news paradigm is actually interested in censoring and stamping out of existence. But they also know well enough to at least try and make it look like that's not what it's about, such as with the Google Medic Algorithm. Something that certainly could make it easier to find good information, but could also be used to stamp out inconvenient truths by lumping it in with bunk information. And it's guaranteed to be used for just that.

Of course you're not, because you didn't watch Richard Henne's video presenting the direct recordings, of the police interviews of him and his family and other things around his case and comparing it to what the investigators officially wrote down in their affidavits and reports that I linked above, thus proving the police outright fabricated evidence against him. He's been claiming it was never a hoax for years, you'd think some journalists would've maybe picked up on that by now and taken a look at his evidence and blown the lid on it in the last 10 years to one up the competition. But of course they didn't do that and probably won't ever except maybe 30 years from now when there's no longer a risk reporting it. Much like all the other things they don't talk about:
