Analysis of the Renee Good video. Very good analysis, worth watching. ...

Speeding up the video shows how disinformation occurs.

He is apparently working from a 1 second clip that was sped up. I've never seen the 1 second clip, aside from this video.

Here is a better compilation of multiple videos:

At most, the video may show that there was some contact between the shooter and the car.

I don't think it's possible to say from that video whether there was actual contact, or whether what you see is him leaning over the hood of the car to get a better angle for his first shot. And you cannot say that "the car made contact with him," as it is equally likely, especially given all of the other views of his foot positions, that any contact was contact he made with the car and not, as your subject line states, vice versa.

Once he saw the original version of the video from the front, rather than the grainy, sped up, extremely cropped video.

When she moved forward, he was pushed off balance and lost his footing (the key difference between the two analyses - before he could clearly see the foot slipping, he said there was no contact). Whether he was leaning on the car when the car moved forward, or whether the contact was a fraction of a second later by her closing a miniscule gap between them - hard to tell.

Watch the compilation from the Minnesota Star I linked to earlier. It has a side-by-side comparison of synced videos- and the foot slipping occurs simultaneously with her moving forward.

I'm not saying she deliberately hit him. He was clearly at fault - he walked in front of a running car which was in gear - an extremely unsafe thing to do. He was holding a cell phone in one hand and a gun in the other - if you shouldn't drive while using your cell phone, you certainly shouldn't be aiming and firing a gun while holding a cell phone.

Shouldn't every reputable news organization -- especially TV and streaming -- be doing this kind of analysis to ensure the public is not swayed by disinformation?
