Mainstream media does some pretty bad things, but this may be the worst suppression of news I've seen in my life.
Agenda-driven media suppression of 5-yr-old Cannon Hinnant's murder is absolutely disgusting
The young boy was riding his bicycle with his two sisters when he went onto a neighbors lawn. That neighbor, Darius N. Sessoms, 25, allegedly walked up to the child and shot him in the head with a firearm. He is in custody. This is big news that goes beyond local coverage. At least it should.
Its being picked up around the world by major news outlets like The Independent in the United Kingdom. But in the United States where it happened, the big mainstream media outlets other than Fox News are completely ignoring it.
Why? Because Hinnant was a young Caucasian boy and his suspected murderer is Black. If the situation were different and a Black boy was killed by a Caucasian man, this would be the biggest story across the board on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, NY Times, Washington Post, and all the other leftist mainstream media rags. Instead, were hearing a deafening silence. None of them have even mentioned Cannon Hinnants name other than in local affiliate broadcasts.

Just so everyone understands: a lone woman calling the police on a stranger threatening her/her dog in a park is considered national news.
The murder of Cannon Hinnant is not.

Same group of people plastered Covington kids on front page - a total hoax, by the way - now want to claim that they won't report on Cannon Hinnant, because it's a "local news story."

Cannon Hinnant #SayHisName

This is 100% about the Black Lives Matter movement. They wont report it just like they wont report murders in Chicago that are predominantly committed against Black men by Black men. Its why they wont report violence in leftist cities like Portland or Seattle because its violence in the name of Black Lives Matter; to mainstream media, theyre just mostly peaceful protesters. They have an agenda that combines their allegiance to the Democratic Party and their embrace of the Neo-Marxist push by Black Lives Matter.
There is nothing more racist that mainstream media can do than to ignore a story about a childs murder because he didnt fit their agenda. CNN, MSNBC, NY Times, and WaPo are evil. Cannon Hinnant. Say his name.

Youre telling me that a piece of rope hanging in Bubba Wallaces NASCAR garage was more worthy of national coverage for WEEKS than 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant being executed in cold blood in front of his sisters?
A life that mattered...
Disgusting, but not surprising for the traitorous enemydia.
But they keep trying.
Future generations will look back at this time and be disgusted about the rampamt liberal bias and pc groupthink and how it promoted lies and ignored truths it didnt like.
Has President Trump commented on this? If not, he should. This is beyond horrible.
Theyd probably consider it racist to report it, because the word is their favorite weapon but a hard one to control.
90% of the media are corrupt traitors who push the propaganda of the demonrats...
This boys life will not be in vain. Bless his heart. Also....major media plan is backfiring. The grandma instituted a GoFundMe for $5k to cover funeral costs. It is now up to $660k.
BLM figures the white boy had it coming due to being born white.
What exactly do you want?
They arrested the guy. They charged hm with first degree murder.
What more do you want? Is putting the story on ABC news going to accomplish anything?
What do you want, and why?
Maybe K-Mac will do a mic drop next week. I don’t think I’ve seen it at a briefing.
Disgusting. The so-called MEDIA needs to be taken down.
I don’t know if he has spoken about this or not.
VT Lt first class troll
>> CNN, MSNBC, NY Times
CNN is ATT — the #1 telecom provider
MSNBC is Comcast — the #3 telecom provider
Nothing to see here — continue the indifference.
Golly, gee, you sure had plenty to spew over a couple of deaths, and nobody could with credibility call them innocent.. Social justice warriors, have displayed their primary colors... I would think this childs siblings deserve at least one big state funeral...
That’s not the point and you know it
