Kolek planning to go pro
Question:If a white guy who was all over social media attacking black people, the BLM movement and the guilty verdict for the three murderers in Georgia drove an SUV into a parade in a black community and killed a bunch of black people would anyone on Scoop or in the general population need an admission from the killer to believe that race was a motive?I know I wouldn’t.
or like these 2, eyn'a?
Looks like George Stanley has decided the Waukesha attack is no longer news.It's completely gone from the Journal Sentinel.This is media bias in action in real time.
You mean like, let's say, a white 17 year old complaining about looters and rioters, and how he wish he had an AR-15 so he could shoot them, then going out and getting an AR-15, going to a protest/riot and shooting them. Or how about a white person running over protestors with his car at a white nationalist rally. I'm sure no one would defend that, or say it wasn't race motivated...Both Sides.I agree, no one on scoop or the general population would need an admission to find the white kid responsible, or race being a motive.The Waukesha killer is evil. Let him rot in prison. No reason to create agendas around this, especially ones not supported by evidence/history.

You didn't look in the actual hard copy paper, did you?
Yeah. Type in jsonline.com and it’s literally the only thing you see without scrolling (in the mobile version, anyway). 3 articles on it.What narrative is “the media” trying to push here, anyway?
It's a local story, of course they are covering it extensively. There are many outlets not covering it in the same way though.
Stories like this are covered a few days by the National outlets and then they move on. They’ll be back when there is a trial or he pleads. Really lacking perspective if people think “the media” is pushing an agenda here.
Of course, news cycles are short. But when you gloss over a hideous killing of 6 people and running over 40 plus people in a christmas parade by calling it an "accident" or "car crash" or saying an SUV ran them over, that is disgusting. Maybe not pushing an agenda, but not painting an accurate picture of of the horrific nature of the crime or criminal either. This was multiple large news outlets, not isolated reporting.
I guess people will find outrage when they want to be outraged.
I'm guessing you would feel differently if it was your friend or kid who was killed or severely injured.
I hope not. Just misplaced anger.
The problem I have with this type of reporting is it desensitizes the horrific nature of the crime. Politics or race shouldn't play into it. It's a big deal, and affected many lives in a terrible way. It should be reported as such not rationalized.
It is being reported as such. You are reading too much into it.
hairyFluff has become the scoop tough guy and getting a straight answer is not going to happen. The Waukesha tragedy was horrible event and only an idiot could argue that. The whole thing makes me sad and debating it on here has made things worse for me.
