It's an assassination because the dead person had way more social|political|economic power than the killer.

So... only bad power seeking people that cross those they have tangible power over to the point of vengeance.

Fuck, in this hellscape of corruption and captured governments world? I'm sold. You should sell the concept of assassination more often. You're good.

Yeah, I'm not sure why the downvotes on my previous comment. "Assassination" is the "privilege" of the powerful.

Assassinations are typically politically motivated. We don't know what his motivation was yet, so calling it an assassination is jumping to conclusions.

Because apparently noting what makes this killing different from others means you love slobbing on CEO knob, or something. That's my takeaway from this thread so far.

You seem to be under a false belief of what defined an assassination. Is it an assassination every time a poor person kills a rich person?
