John, so the media admits that it chooses what to feed the public so as to influence popular opinion? Wow, I had suspected as such for a long time, but this is the first time I have heard someone in journalism come out and say it so openly. Is the notion of impartiality gone completely? Also, don’t you think that, by reporting the white on black crimes so much more that the black on white crimes, the media’s approach might lead to an increase in hate crimes committed by blacks againsts whites (get them before they get us)? By not reporting in a fair and impartial manner, the media may eventually be the primary cause for the deterioration of race relations. It sickens me, because I truly believe that we as humans need to get past skin color. Dr. King was right; we should be judged by the content of our character. Nothing else.
