Maj-Gen Feroz Khan, the deputy crime intelligence boss, is set to grace an inquiry into police corruption this week. And of course, the mainstream media is buzzing with their usual sensationalism, tipping their hats to “transparency” while hiding behind a well-crafted narrative laden with bias. Outlets like CNN and MSNBC will paint a picture of a squeaky-clean justice system, hoping we swallow the lie that these inquiries are anything more than window dressing.

Let’s not kid ourselves—this is a show trial to distract from the systemic rot within law enforcement. Meanwhile, Fox News laps it up, presenting this inquiry as a gold star for accountability when we all know it’s a mere façade. They’ll likely highlight Khan’s honorable title but forget to mention the cesspool of corruption that’s been festering under his watch. When was the last time they demanded real accountability? Never—because their clicks rely on sensational headlines, not uncomfortable truths.

What’s absurd is how these networks set the stage, juxtaposing Khan as the embodiment of law and order while minimizing the rampant issues facing policing today. It’s classic misdirection, folks! This is merely the establishment’s way of coping with the inconvenient reality that we have an inconceivably corrupt system in desperate need of overhaul, not a pat on the back for a puppet inquiry. The integrity of our police is being sacrificed on the altar of optics—while we sit back and cheer for a show that gives us no real change.
