7 Arrested in Death of Oakland Newspaper Editor
New York Times ^ | 08/03/2007 | JESSE McKINLEY

OAKLAND, Calif., Aug. 3 — A day after a prominent newspaper editor was shot to death downtown, the police here on Friday arrested seven men and seized several weapons that they suspected were used in his killing and those of two other men.

Oakland police officials said they suspected that the men were part of a group operating “a very violent criminal enterprise” out of a neighborhood bakery.

The arrests came after a predawn raid by SWAT teams at the bakery, the Your Black Muslim Bakery, and three bakery-owned properties, where the police found several firearms, including the gun they believe was used to kill the editor, Chauncey Bailey, of the weekly Oakland Post.

Mr. Bailey, 57, was shot several times at close range on Thursday morning at a busy intersection near the Alameda County courthouse here. He had been working on an article for the newspaper about possible links between the bakery and several killings in the area, said Walter Riley, a lawyer for the newspaper’s publisher, Paul Cobb.

On a scale of 1 to 10 for political incorrectness, I would say that headline ranks a googleplex for the NY Times.

The New York Times is singling out Esditor-Americans for discrimination again.

Should have known it was too good to be true.

Yeah, no way a newspaper would headline a story with the determination of guilt prior to a court’s ruling. Instant lawsuit.

Sorry. But the poster made up his own headline.
The actual NYT headline is: 7 Arrested in Death of Oakland Newspaper Editor

That’s my headline: theirs was
“7 Arrested in Death of Oakland Newspaper Editor”

which begs he question: 7 what? You have to get to paragraph 3 to find out they were Muslims. And it is that high in the article probably only because the victim was a journalist. If the victim were a cop, maybe para 10. And all the other victims...well the late Mr. Bailey apparently was digging into that. Check out all the other stuff this “Bakery” did in the name of the “Religion of Pieces” — oddly the Oakland PD never found reason to shut them down ... until now.

In late 2005, several members of the group that operates the bakery, including the younger Mr. Bey, were charged in an attack at a small neighborhood grocery store, in which liquor bottles were smashed and other merchandise was destroyed. The attack was treated as a felony hate crime, the police said, because the store, which is owned by Muslims, had sold goods forbidden by Islamic law.

The Commission for the Protection of Virtue and the Suppression of Vice come to Oakland. Wahabi-African-Americans.

That may be true, but there are times when the papers pull their first headline and replace it quickly. That may not have happened here though.

You shouldn’t change headlines. When people don’t see the original in a search, the article is usually reposted, wasting bandwidth.

To prevent duplication, please do not alter the title. Thanks.

It doesn't waste bandwidth, it wastes storage space.

It’s a story we’ve been hearing a lot lately - Muslims killing people.

You have to get to paragraph 3 to find out they were Muslims.

And you wouldn't have found out at all if not for the bakery's name.

Political correctness will eventually cause mammoth loss of innocent American lives.

I’m late to the party. What was your headline? I’m betting it was more accurate.

I found that extremely interesting, too. Did it take the death of this “editor” to finally “put these bad guys away”? I also found the police Lt. remark about their deportment being “disrespectful” to the neighborhood interesting, if not downright aberrant.

Is it just my imagination or is that genuinely one of the most noncommital, uninformative, headlines I’ve ever heard from the NYSlimes?
