What, you may ask, does a tragic police-involved shooting have to do with the brutal rape and murder—50 years ago—of a woman from Queens, NY? That’s easy…
Learning absolutely zero from its absurdly inaccurate and biased coverage of the Genovese case, the media did it again—big time—with the Mike Brown/Darren Wilson matter. Everyone seems to remember that “38″ witnesses to Kitty’s death “did nothing.”
Yet, no one seems to remember the name of the vile perp Winston Moseley, or that Genovese was at least his third murder victim. Nor do they remember that Moseley was caught precisely because the public chose to “get involved” by reporting his mysterious behavior to the police the following day, which led to his arrest.
For what it’s worth, there were nowhere near 38 actual witnesses, although that seems to be the...

The Genovese case was certainly held up as a model for “everything wrong” with society at the time. But, as this article indicates, that storyline depended on a lot of dishonest reporting from the NYT. Kitty’s murder was a tragedy, of course, but the neighbors were not the problem. The perp was the problem. The NYT decided to overlook that. Nothing has changed.
for later
From the article:
‘but no one seems to care that had he not acted like a vicious thug, which no one disputes’
It appears the author has never heard of Lesley McSpadden. She says her son never harmed anyone, and at the time he was shot, MB was “running for his life”. In fact, McSpadden doesn’t even admit it was her son strong-arming the little convenience store clerk. She gives interviews, and is not challenged on these points/lies.
That right there is a big part of the problem. McSpadden kicked MB out of her/his home so her gangbanger ex-con boyfriend could live with her, and now she denies any aggression at all on the part of her late son. So no, not every one agrees that MB acted like a ‘vicious thug’. If they did, Fergusson wouldn’t be in the mess it’s in today.
They tortured them in disgusting manner.
Does even FOX cover stuff like that? It seems like a few lone voices against the entire media. Back when that homosexual guy was murdered out in Utah, or wherever, I mentioned to a few people that a homosexual couple in Arkansas had torture-murdered a young teen boy, Jesse Dirkhising. Nobody much seemed to care.
That case is one of the most horrible things I have ever read about. What that poor young couple went through is nothing short of monstrous.
I was young, when the Kitty Genovese incident took place, and lived in the NYC suburbs - this was a BIG story.
Obviously, the best thing would be for a female to be armed, but since that doesn’t always happen, I have hammered home the point, to my female relations; don’t yell ‘Help’, or ‘Police’. As loud, and as often as you can, yell ‘FIRE’. People are much more likely to take action, if they (literally) think that their own behind is about to be torched. Thank you.
The Laramie, Wyoming murder of Matthew Shepherd was a media managed event from the beginning. I knew people in Laramie; they told me it was amid drugs and stuff that the kid was beaten.
Our media is evil, seriously satanic.
