As always, I like to see more than an image of a tweet, but Shuster is an actual journalist.

I still think it's too early to call this, I'm not seeing reporting by major orgs on it. It does seem plausible based on the messages on the casings, but I also thought it plausible he was a leftist
AFAIK, the casings messages are real, just different than originally reported. And while it's true major news orgs have an anti left bias, it doesn't manifest in this specific way. They tend to accurately report these kinds of facts in a timely manner.
Then again, the WSJ did break with this behavior, so maybe things are changing and I need to recalibrate.
None of this is retracted, and these aren't the manufacturer's markings. I'll go ahead and be dumb enough to believe the reporting from all these '"news" orgs'. I am now propagandized into believing that a clearly unwell person made a potentially unusual decision.
