Where is the MSM outrage?

Could have been the New York Post or DailyMail too. Fox News just recently picked up the story. I do wonder why more rightwing news sources have picked it up.

There is no cover up, it's a widely reported story regionally.. The OP wouldn't even have seen the story if it wasn't reading a right wing blog...

A 5 year old white boy was murdered by a black man in North Carolina. The little boy was riding his bike on the sidewalk in front of his neighbors home. The black guy came out, put a gun to the boy's head and murdered him in cold blood. He did this in front of the boys two young sisters.

I found out the facts of this cold blooded murder ONLY on the internet. Why is this not all over the network news? Why is this not on the MSM all day long with hourly updates? Sorry to say it is not even on Fox News so far. When a white Policeman if forced to shoot an enraged druged up black guy that is attacking him, the MSM is all over it for days, weeks, and months. Now we have a black guy that shoots a 5 year old child for no reason at all, and not one peep out of the MSM. Where is their outrage in this case.

This is another case that I have railed against about the MSM. As in this case it is not the news the MSM bends or just plain lies about that they put on, it is the news they dont put on.

Dont believe it, google it and see for yourself.

Any one care to explain this.

A white friend of mine was murdered 10 years ago by 2 white boy scouts who broke into her house at random with machetes and killed her and permanently maimed her daughter. A few years ago a white woman in a neighboring town shot her two white daughters who were asleep in their beds and then shot herself.

Neither story made national news. Neither story made it past local news. Neither story even made the MSM internet, as this story did.

So obviously the MSM was covering up for the white murderers, right?

Fail.

But I'm glad a young white boy died so you can put your racism on display and use his death to advance it.

You should start up your own cable news network then.

The media is all about division based on race, specifically white against black. They have to continue their narrative that all white people are racist.
Now if it was a white guy shooting a black kid, now we have a story. They would talk about white supremacy shooter backed by Trump, killing is Trumps fault and they would blame Trump for loose gun laws.
 
Xilnik said:
I do not understand the need to politicize nearly everything these days. Reading the reaction from the neighbors, thinking Sessoms was just playing with the kid and not realizing he shot the boy, and then when they saw with the father running out screaming. That was heartbreaking.

It certainly is a senseless tragedy and I can't even imagine what the family must be going through. But it isn't hard to imagine had the parameters been different, this story would have gotten some serious airtime and politicizing it as a need for gun control or this was a hate crime, etc. Who knows if that will end up happening but I agree that I don't understand the need.

The media's primary focus is on harming Trump. Their secondary focus is on promoting Biden. Unless a story advances one of those goals it just doesn't get much play.

The story you are talking about seems to be a real tragedy. The shooter was reasonably close with the kid's father and, according to one report, they all had dinner together the night before. The shooting may have been prompted by something as simple as the kid riding his bike across the guy's lawn.

The man was probably mentally ill.

The man that did this, is clearly insane. HE should have done things in his past, that would get his gun confiscated.

You must be joking. Guns are available every where. When i was in Hawaii, and New York, i had scum bags come up to me and ask me if i wanted to buy a gun. Theres more gun shops in USA than petrol stations. (you yanks call them gas stations) but gas is a different energy you idiots.

Only black lives matter.

I did read it. You brought the words "fake news" into the conversation through responding to my post. Since I never questioned the story's validity, there was no reason to assume anyone believes it is fake news. Hence your logical fallacy based on what you responded to.

Was the black guy a policeman or law enforcement officer?

Was there any indication the shooting was motivated by racism?

If you have a source for your OP, you should link it. But I've never seen you provide any links in your silly OPs.

Link in post #2. Why do only black lives matter?
