Is it racist then when reporting a crime and the race is not mentioned hinting (darkly) that the perpetrator was black?

Newspaper apologizes for publishing the truth instead of a lie. I can’t say that I’m surprised.

Who would have known? Is Memphis one of those places where truth is unwelcome?

From the article:
One of the protest leaders, Pastor Earle Fisher of the Memphis Grassroots Organization Coalition, said following a meeting with Commercial Appeal {Newspaper} employees that the situation highlighted the need for cultural sensitivity training.
Off to reeducation camp with you!

Just imagine what the reporting would have been like if the races were reversed. Tells you everything you need to know about the communist media.

The propagandistic left never wants to allow the Sheeple to have all the real facts to make up their own minds. Similar to the French authorities who decided to cover up the torture and mutilations at Bataclan in Paris, last November. We don’t want the Sheeple to know the facts if they might get riled up against BLM or Islamists or..... another politically protected group.

Bingo - every news story I’ve read re: crime that when the race is not mentioned it’s a black. The stories have in the first line ‘white’ ....then too, ever notice in those ID theft and home break-in adverts it’s always a white guy shown? No black no Hispanic no Asian. I thought diversity was the key word and equal opportunity in media and all that...

Of course if it was a white person who stated he was targeting blacks and they didn’t report it, they would be up i arms about that as well.

It’s more than pathetic. It’s Orwellian.
To: PROCON
It is not racist to point out a black murderer targeted victims because they are white.
