    What was there to the Ahmaud Arbery story to make it news?

    Oh, you mean like every crime that a white person commits against a black person is labeled racist by CNN? And every crime that a black person commits against a white person or an asian person, is labelled totally NOT racist? :roflol:

    Absolute NONSENSE! Give an example! You seem to have not heard of CNN's coverage of the Covington Catholic kids, which was perhaps the single biggest example of a racial narrative in media history!

    Kori Muhammad was covered pretty extensively when it occurred. I also said especially meaning the bulk of the coverage would come from conservative media. Both sides have their biases

    What was the problem with covering it?

    No I'm not surprised by it. So you acknowledge that the left wing outlets aren't covering this story because it doesn't cater to their viewers/listeners/readers?

    Except I gave you a link, the very link you provided in the OP that said the story was covered by an organization called Democrat and XXXX.

    But, yes, stories are covered to cater to an audience. Does that surprise you? You just said NO, you are not surprised. So why continue on as if you are?

    Why the hell would I LIKE any of your posts? So let's review - you have been totally unable to defend your position that Forbes is right wing when presented with evidence to the contrary, and you have failed to defend that Forbes author, who has a BLATANT double standard on press secretaries, thinking that Obama's press secretaries were totally 100% honest! :roflol:

    Well the media claims that they are objective don't they?

    You're trying to claim that murder isn't murder, but rather some murders are more worthy of covering than others based on motive.

    When will the right realize that white people are racist and are the oppressive, and that blanket racist statements like this are acceptable because white people are all racist oppressors!

    They think that means, to have an objective.

    You asked if there was a "specific reason."

    I never hear that claim. And if they do, I don't believe it.

    I know the purpose of 24/7 reality tv so called news. To sell advertising to make money.

    It's why I don't put a lot of stock in any of those media outlets.
    Believe none of what you read/hear, and 1/2 of what you see.

    And again, it really begs the question: Is the obtuseness genuine or blatant trolling? One I could almost respect for its consistency, the other would have me shaking my head in abject pity.
