Have you heard about this horrific double kidnap/rape/murder?
Of course you haven't, it doesn't fit the profile for any of the stories the legacy media wants to tell you.
Compare this with the Duke Men's Lacrosse Team. White on black crime? Check. Rich against poor? Check. Men against woman? Check.
Or with Matthew Shepard. Homophobia? Check.
Or James Byrd. White on black racism, leading to murder, in a state run by a Republican. Oh yeah, baby! Check!
But, black on white crime, with carjacking, sexual assualt, murder? Not a story.
And the legacy media wonders why newspapers are going out of business, and why the legacy media nightly TV news reaches less than 10% of Americans.
It's because they're not telling the news, they're telling the story they want you to hear.
UPDATE: "Here are the lies!"
