Where is the MSM outrage?

You mean you only found out about it because you were reading the Washington Examiner (right wing blog) which sourced the story from WRAL? Perhaps you should expand your news sources... I think this says more about the kind of news sources you use than anything about the MSM.

What it says is that the MSM buries these stories in favor of the stories that push their agenda. That is what this thread is about, the bias in the MSM who choose and pick the stories they want to push their leftist agenda. Are you denying that this happened? If you don't deny it then why didn't the story make the MSM? Answer: because they are pushing systemic racism against blacks so a story such as this needs to be buried as it hurts the agenda they want to push, just as they squash all of the black on black crime that happens every day and fail to report that, even under Trump, police on black killings has actually decreased. Why do they refuse to report that little tidbit?
 
I heard about that terrible incident over here in Australia. Shocking.

RIP little man.

I'm sorry that so many people won't give a **** about what happened to you and what your loved ones will be going through right now while they pretend to care while they trample all over your grave to push their agendas.

It's a sick world we live in. In more ways than one.

Thank you for caring, all the way from Australia. When I first learned of this sick and horrific tragedy, I could not find any, ANY national coverage in the U.S. I found the story on the Daily Mail.
That is how sick, partisan and utterly hacked our media has become.
 

Because if they didn't, the story wouldn't be told at all by the MSM. It would not serve their agenda of systemic racism against blacks. Therefore, the story must be buried.

If these stories are so buried, how did Washington Examiner come across it?
 
How pathetic must a person be to use a tragic murder to try to make some political point. This young man who murdered this boy lived next door and their families have been friends for years. The murderers father and the victims father had dinner together Saturday night. This is OBVIOUSLY not some random murder.

Oh please. The left do this nonstop, 24/7/365 plus leap year days.
 
It's obvious what the OP was after... The scary black man will kill your kids...

What we've ALL witnessed since George Floyd was killed several months ago, is black children being murdered in the streets by black men, and BLM not given a flying fart about it.
So, yes, common-sense deduction would find this narrative quite sensible.
 
Why are you outraged about murder? Because it involved a black man and a white child? When black people are killed by cops you say it's justified.

Why are you not outraged by all the black on black murders that happen every day across the country? Why do you have to concentrate on very infrequent happenings compared to the hundreds of blacks that get murdered by blacks every day? Do black lives matter or not?
 
If black lives really matter then the MSM should have stories every day about all of the black on black killings that happen numerous times per day all across the country. But, that is shelved to cover very infrequent happenings of blacks dying at the hands of police. Black lives get sputtered out many times per day every day and yet the MSM have been milking the George Floyd thing for months on end and not covering all the constant and never ending black on black crime.

This is all about BLM's agenda which has nothing to do with black lives, or blacks being murdered in the streets by other blacks.
The Left is profoundly crooked and weak, and they have no moral compass whatsoever. If they did, they'd revolt against what's happening in our streets and stand up for the victims of violence.

Ummmmmmm, the scary black men murder blacks many times per day every day and yet the MSM don't report that, they report very infrequent incidents of police and blacks and milk them for months.

They'll never answer. They will never be held to answer, because on forums like this, they know they're in the majority and that gives them cover. They will silence our dissent before they hold each other accountable.
And they are fully supported by the legacy media arm of the Democrat party, who also ignore the rampant violence, in favor or advancing a radical and balkanizing agenda.
Bottom line- they do not care about black lives.
 
Yet the Washington Examiner didn't even do any reporting, the regurgitated what they sourced from a story by WRAL. It's pathetic..

What's pathetic is defending a black man for murdering a white kid.

What will coverage of black-on-black crime accomplish? Will it shame black people into not killing each other?
 
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...

You need to reread your post.
 
Nice strawman. I never questioned the story's validity.

But this is about how the left leaning MSM pick and choose their stories to further the agenda they want to push.

Well to be fair, the 5-year old boy never held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly and didn't have fentynyl in his system when he was executed. So there's not much for them to sympathize with.
 
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.

That's because the MSM were pushing the stories they wanted to push - Democrats good, Republicans bad. A black guy was killed by cops two months ago. Let's harp on that because white on white crime doesn't play into our agenda.

Of course you are correct. George Floyd's death while tragic, was a local story.
How is it his effigy and cannonization spread across the globe?

Why would you think that democrats/progressives would not be appalled at the shooting of a five year old child?

They felt it was more important to report on a police on black death that happened months ago rather than report this. The narrative must continue. There is systemic racism against blacks. A story such as this doesn't support the narrative they want to push.

That is a bit disingenuous. The incident was made global because it was caught on video and went viral. BLM initially had very little to do with it.
 
Probably, but it could also have been a side effect of medication for all we know. There are prescription medications that can alter people's reactions to things. Maybe the little boy was riding his bike and making some noise, and with the mind altered state, the neighbor reacted violently. The latest update says investigators are still trying to determine motive.

Maybe a police killing on a black was justified.
