CNN has denied claims by conservative websites that a photo of Chris Harper-Mercer, the man who shot and killed nine people at Umpqua Community College in Oregon last week, was altered to make him appear white. But a report on his mother, who is black, used footage of white hands to illustrate her making web postings on Tuesday.

A CNN report aired Tuesday on CNN's "The Lead with Jake Tapper" noted there are "new questions whether the mother of the Oregon shooter … shares at least some of the responsibility for the tragedy."

CNN mentioned that the shooter had Asperger, but noted that the condition is not associated with violence.

During the report discussing Harper's posts to the website, two different times close-ups of women's hands are shown typing at a computer keyboard. Both times, the footage used appear to be the hands of white women.

Dear Media,

I know this would be a stretch. An unimaginable request that would require something very different, something very uncomfortable for the media to do:

Turn off the filters and agenda, and get us the facts. I’m a big boy and can take it from there.

What’s the worst that could happen? Is there a concern that I’d find out it was muslim extremism? Don’t worry, that ship left port a long time ago.

Sincerely, Me

This guy is turning out to be whiter than George Zimmerman, the whitest Hispanic in the Universe.

Trust for the media was at 18% in a recent national poll.
Wonder why.

They obsessed over Dylann Roofs Confederate Flag photo.

So let’s see screenshots of this guys MySpace, revelation of his writings, what’s been found in his residence (besides the number of guns), what his acquaintances and relatives thought of him, etc

And consistent mention of his mothers race and the race of his victims, with particular emphasis that none were black.

Let’s also remind every time that he’s foreign born and singled out Christians to be shot in the head

That’s why the story of black shooter who shot the white female reporter and the White interviewee came and went in the blink of an eye. Remember the shooting at the Washington Naval yard a while back? Did you even know the shooter was black? Most don’t. Race really doesn’t matter to me, what bothers me is the media’s manipulation of reporting facts.....they do seem to report more aggressively when the shooter is white. just my 2 cent.

The MSM is trying to present an alternate reality.

I say this with no hyperbole, but the media is essentially in a constant campaign to prove that golden retrievers are the most dangerous dogs on the face of the earth, while pit bulls are the most harmless.

Any story that a golden retriever may bite someone will be screamed across every headline, while every incident with a pit bull must be buried or excused.

When are we going to be told that the shooter’s black mother bought 100% of the guns used?

It has been a week since the shooting. It should not take that long to run the serial numbers for the 14 guns and find out who is the purchaser.

CNN had best get in touch with the Czech Republic. They’ll be pissed to find out they’ve been taken over by the Swiss.

His Muslim leanings are being covered up. They are indicating that he was mentally unstable, but who are the Muslim terrorists going to prey on, but the mentally unstable? He had two friends on Myspace and one had pictures of Muslim terrorists on his profile page.

We are living in a racial version of Orwell’s 1984. Black is white.

Yeah. And when he was a baby, she read to him from The Art of the Deal, according to some reports.
These shootings are being orchestrated from the top.

Also, if you watch typical MSM images of the European refugee crisis, you would get the impression that about 75-80% of the immigrants are women and young children, which is the exact opposite of the reality.
