When I saw the report, I immediately thought: no, these aren’t Amish youth, since they presumably don’t know how to drive a motor vehicle. They might be Presbyterians on the run...but maybe not. The “leading news source” for Northern Virginia identifies them as blacks...so I guess I'll have to accept that:

Years ago I saw a story online about a brutal robbery of an older woman (the victim was hospitalized); per the article, the police were appealing for help to identify/apprehend the perps -- there was a pretty detailed description of their clothes and the vehicle they were driving (a white Ford pickup: I still remember) -- but literally nothing about the perps themselves -- so I emailed the lady reporter to ask about that -- she replied right away that the perps were described as Hispanic, she had included that info in her original copy, but it was removed by an editor -- she gave me the name/email of the editor and suggested I ask them.
ReplyDeleteThis happened right around the time the general public began to be aware that crime stories were being censored so as not to 'reinforce stereotypes' -- so it was nice to get a confirmation about the practice, as well as how far they were prepared to go, i.e. to remove the description of at-large suspects wanted for a serious violent crime against someone vulnerable.
I got the impression the lady reporter was not too happy about the whole business, and this was not the first time it had happened to her.
There's a 1 in one trillion chance that the local media might have been referring to the LAST name of the perp as being "Black"--it's POSSIBLE!(As lawyers stress in court when they bring up unlikely scenarios).
ReplyDeleteSince the media capitalizes that particular word now to honor nigs,there's no way of knowing if the perp WAS black--or his NAME was "Black"--in which case,since I know that most people named Black are actually White(and those named White are black),the perp could be(again,one in a trillion odds)--WHITE!!!
But I wouldn't bet a nickle on it.
One more question.Does the media capitalize the N in nig*er too?If not--WHY?
Maybe they can bring that point up at the next meeting of Commie
Newspaper,Radio and TV Execs.
