Looks like CNN is doing race baiting, racists enabling and trying to stir up racism sympathy for voting Obama.

Mods feel free to eliminate this post if something is wrong.

Touched a nerve, did they?

I guess the question would be, are the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the FBI conducting an investigation or not? If they are then that's news.

That reminds me: I haven’t seen an article on Emmett Till in several months. I expect to see several between now and November.

This is just the start of it. Look for PBS and others to begin reshowing the various documentaries on lynchings in the South. In particular, I think you'll see the Emmitt Till murder re counted over and over again.

The Emmitt Till Story

“Barack Obama told a group of Florida donors Friday night that Republicans will try to make voters afraid of him, and suggested they would use his race to scare up votes for John McCain.”

The media’s attempt to make people feel guilty about NOT suporting the Messiah....

CNN has to fill their time with something or else they might have to look into the Obama birth certificate or Selective Service record.

There's nothing wrong with reopening horrendous murders like this if there's a chance to solve them. Hopefully it can be solved because crimes like this should never be forgotten. My only problem is that we all know that a similar case where race wasn't a factor would likely not be reopened after this long of a time, and if it was suspected to be a black-on-white crime neither the government nor the media would show the slightest concern over it after so much time had passed.

Didn't Congress appropriate money a couple of years ago to reopen a bunch of old unsolved murder cases, limited to ones where blacks were the victims and whites were suspected to be the murderers?

I don't know about the Till case being highlighted again, but NBC made a big deal out of the James Byrd murder a few weeks back. A horrible murder to be sure, and one that deserved punishment and publicity, but it's typical that they're still dwelling on it ten years later when they can't give even three minutes to the Wichita killings, the Knoxville killings, the killing of little Emily Haddock, the killing of Eve Carson (actually that one got some coverage until they found out the killers were black), the Lauren Burk killing, and so on. In the most recent NBC report, we learned that Jasper, Texas (site of the Byrd killing) is now a better place to live because black Democrats now control the city government. Hint, hint!
