I think the point was that if this had been a white on black or straight on gay hate crime, it would have been the lead story every day since it happened. And a lot of people seem to have never even heard of it. Compare that with Duke Lacrosse ‘rape,’ Tawana Brawley ‘kidnapping,’ Mathew Shepard murder, or another important case that stayed in the press for months. The savageness of this crime and innocence of the victims did not garner the attention and media outrage it should have.
So what you're saying is that the excessive coverage of the Duke Rape Case and Sheppard and Brawley was all justified, and that it's a shame that a media circus wasn't also made out of this case?
