    dismantle voting machines? You mean the voting machines that are old and were hacked within 2 hours? This happened two years ago.

    Why does news all have to revolve around racism and false claims of it? Is this the problem? I never claimed canons death was racism, as a matter of fact I never thought it was. Did this guy have drug issues? Is addiction a problem that causes crimes by someone out of their mind? Does he have mental illness?

    I was thinking this as well... maybe there is no remorse. Who knows? Maybe in his mind it was justified and still is. But we don’t know.. although I think this is way more likely mental illness or drugs, than racism the motive. I just can’t assume racism for everything. Something isn’t right with this guy. just like we don’t know when something is racism just because two different ethnicities are involved. But apparently some people think that children killed daily is not as important. It happens all the time.

    and I can’t call racism a mental illness as some sources (left science) which as far as I can tell wants to promote.

    Of course racism is a mental illness. Of what other possible reason could it exist?

    Not exactly. If I don't like the republican running I'll go 3rd party. Or throw away my ballot.

    Besides, my point still stands that democrats like the nominees are soft on violence, rioting, and terrorism. And hard on victimless crime. You can't disprove it.

    Further I don't give a fuck about Nixon. His removal of the Gold Standard was far worse than his little Watergate scandal. And he deserves history to treat him poorly. Reagan the same way with his calling marijuana the most dangerous illegal substance. You're just trying to subvert the argument.

    We would have to question why so many left wing sources choose to ignore this story until put under pressure to do so.

    I hope the father of Cannon Hinnat sues CNN for defaming him with the photo next to that article headline. And wins as much as Nick Sandman did against CNN in his defamation case.

    So, I guess 6 Eyed is saying that the media is so taken aback with the momentum of BLM or Election or Donald Trump that when something like this comes along that threatens the supposed direction of the news cycle, its spin so to speak, that they don't offer it coverage perhaps in a vain attempt to save face.

    That's an interesting concept because it speaks to the idea that media should be very objective and honest, not tilted one way or the other. And what else is weird is that traditionally we see violent crime overtly covered in media - this time though at an inopportune juncture.

    I guess I see what you're saying. There's some inconsistency.

    I guess I feel like overall though I like their coverage and the spin that feeds equality - not the one that perpetuates inequality, like the violent crime coverage being front and center even though it represents a small proportion of reality.

    EDIT: I just saw an avatar of a gun being pointed - I'm not sure what the spin is there. That probably says something about violence to my brain; which is both insulting and grotesque.

    Probably because they see the news value as limited--it seemingly being about an isolated incident with no broader social or political implications; and because of the perceived potential that scumbags out to promote racial division will give it prominence because they expect that the unthinking jerk on the street willl see white kid, black perpetrator and jump to a conclusion the parents rejected. Why did you bring it up and make such a big deal of it?

    CNN isn't that bad.

    We shouldn't discredit them by suggesting they're not credible.

    Counterfiet News Network

    They're basically the leftist version of Fox News but a little worse.

    Why do you make such a small deal of a child being murdered?

    Not a small deal at all. Why do you make such a big deal about the murderer being black? A dozen other kids in the U.S. have been murdered since Trump took office. Why haven't we read about them in your sources, or from you?

    george Floyd was an isolated incident. 12 deaths of black people last year by cops. White people dying by cops is far greater and above the national average. Ask Orison, his brother was one. Why is it lied about and why is the news Presenting this lie of the disproportionate numbers?

    but yet the child is not news worthy? Oh no big deal, the guy was arrested. Well so were George Floyd cops. Why shouldn’t people move on and wait for the trial? Find out facts?

    No it wasn't. It was a particularly heinous instance of the pattern that led to the organization and solgan Black Lives Matter. White people make up over three-fifths of the population; Blacks 13.4%.

    Everyone agrees it a tragedy and my heart goes out to the family.

    CNN covered the story but limited it’s coverage because they decided their resources were better served covering a worldwide pandemic which has
    killed hundreds of thousands, infected millions, and interrupted the lives of Billions.

    Yes you are making a small deal out of it. You said:

    I care about the media dodging some stories while highlighting others, to exploit a racial narrative that further divides the country.

    This is as stupid as believing that Trump is making America great again only because his marketing slogan says so. You can’t be this dense. But then again you’re just another mass produced democrat indoctrinated by your TV so go figure

    Le's cut to the chase, Six. The reason those right wing rags you got the photos from printed them was to enflame anti-black sentiment by making the emotional connection between the killer's race and the dear little boy in order to fan the flames of racial division. That's really despicable. The reason you posted the pictures and have kept the matter going so long is pretty much the same--with the added attraction of trying to use it to attack mainstream media--the ones who still exercise some professional restraint.
