KSTP Holds Fast to #Pointergate With New Allegations About Navell Gordon
Montanatherealchief KSTP says this is Navell Gordon in late July
Instead of bowing to increasing pressure to issue a public apology for its Pointergate story, KSTP dug in its heels last night with new allegations about Navell Gordon, the man they allege was making "gang signs" with Minneapolis Mayor Betsy Hodges in the infamous Pointergate photo.
KSTP ran a story near the end of the 10 o'clock news stating Gordon was arrested for aggravated robbery August 2 and trumpeting several photos from what appears to be Gordon's Instagram account, listed under the alias "Montana the Real Chief."
The account contains photos taken last summer with a man who appears to be Gordon holding a gun and partying with friends, as well as a closeup of what looks like a semiautomatic weapon. It also shows him making the same pointing symbol KSTP says is the gang sign for the Stick Up Boys, although the station did not mention the gang this time around.
