You would NEVER see a headline like this: Ohio mother arrested after child with autism found alone inside garage of home.

Why is 'Florida' included in the headline? Because Florida's a conservative state hated by the press.

You would NEVER see a headline like this: African-American mother ...

... and yet that's what happened.

That may be part of it, but the truth is that Florida has Sunshine laws, so any reporter can go down to the county sheriff’s office and find out who was arrested that day, and make a news story out if it. Most other states are not this transparent.
