How you know a newspaper is run by LVVCA or a casino owner and is not independent

There was a stabbing at the Venetian on Saturday. This is how the Las Vegas Sun reports it. When you Google the address the Venetian pops up. If you a reporting on a crime the name of the resort should be in the headline or the article. Not some vague manner by just publishing the address. Does Sheldon Adelson own the Sun or maybe it is run by Las Vegas Visitors and Convention Authority.

A male suffered life-threatening wounds after being stabbed at a Strip resort late Saturday, according to Metro Police.

Officers responded to 3355 Las Vegas Blvd. S. shortly before 11 p.m., Lt. Frank Humel said.
The man, who had been stabbed multiple times, was taken to an area hospital in critical condition, Humel said.
The investigation was ongoing early Sunday, Humel said.
Additional details, including a possible motive or suspect, were not immediately available, police said.

The LV Sun is a supplement in the daily LV Review Journal. The Sun is a far, far left newspaper that went out of business and formed a partnership with the RJ to be distributed as part of that paper. (BTW...the LVRJ is trying to get out of that relationship). The Sun is an enemy of Adelson. That was probably just the first story before they had the details as local news all reported it was the Venetian.

Your premise is correct however. The newspaper, government and police all defer to the casinos. Just try to get some details from the 1October mass shooting. Anything communicated by the police had to be whitewashed by the casinos until court orders were issued.

The Sun is a left leaning rag. Its only redeeming quality is it carries Dilbert in its comics section.
