“As the new media gets facts to the public”
Indeed, if it weren’t for internet news sources and legions of investigative bloggers, the facts of the situation would never have been known.
The MSM are such liars. For example, from the article:
“To Trayvon supporters, THE FACT that a half-white, half-Hispanic man went free after profiling Trayvon, an innocent black boy, as a criminal, chasing after him, and then shooting the unarmed boy reeked of racial inequality and even institutional racism.”
Good Lord. . .”FACT?!”
I love how one person is an institution. I also love how they're trying to make it sound like a) profiling [statistics applied] is illegitimate for a private citizen AND b) that a citizen has the same accountability as "the system" [government; re: due process].
There's also a subtext here; that man was created in the image of government. The implications of that philosophy are truly frightening.
