A few internet articles that nobody sees unless you already know about the story and are looking for it. And a quick glance at this "coverage" shows that the killers political affiliation is downplayed and only briefly mentioned if at all. And none of them mention the racial angle to the story from what I've seen. Simply put most Americans have no idea this happened nevermind anyone outside the US and by this weekend the whole thing will be memory holed.


Contrast that with the never ending wall to wall coverage and mass hysteria on national television from all the networks this would have gotten if say a White republican politician had viciously murdered a non-White reporter.

"Hate speech" = anything that liberas don't like.

Pretty sure there's a forum specifically for this. This is the mafia forum.

It's a new morning in America... fresh, vital. The old cynicism is gone. We have faith in our leaders. We're optimistic as to what becomes of it all. It really boils down to our ability to accept. We don't need pessimism. There are no limits.

No, you just randomly made it about politics. There's a politics board for that. That's where the crazy political racist stuff goes.

Except I didn't make it about politics. It became about politics when it turned out the killer was a politician who killed the reporter for political reasons.

There are legit tens of thousands of local politicians in this country that identify as Dem or GOP. There are local GOP politicians accused of criminal activity on a monthly basis, and plenty of it never makes national news. The idea that any crime committed by a Dem is systematically brushed under the rug by the entire media is legit the height of insanity and likely the opinion of someone who shouldn’t be taken seriously on any matter. Seriously…touch some grass one time. You sound like a rube.

Then you must live in a Twilight Zine reality if you think the mass media would be playing this story the exact same way if it had been a Republican politician who murdered a reporter because of his coverage. Especially if the races were reversed.

What are you, stupid? You think the national media covers every story criminally implicating a local GOP pol? Seriously, shut off the cable news and touch some grass one time.

Fuck me for arguing with a half sentient campaign bumper sticker. Sorry to the rest for taking it off topic.

No you are absolutely right. The mass media is not biased at all. They are honest in their reporting and only care about the facts and nothing but the facts. They give equal coverage and weight to every story they report or don't report with absolutely no consideration at all to politics, ideology or race. Hmm must be why trust in the mass media among the American public is the lowest it has ever been in the history of the country. :roll:
