if he or she was white

you’d dam well know it

in the headline/1st paragraph

and then a related story about “white violence”

[Spok]

I guess there some things more important than public safety, like a newspaper’s wokeness. Is there any doubt that the media would withhold news about a cure for a deadly disease out of fear that the “wrong” person might get some credit for it? Any doubt at all?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

By now most everyone knows that the shooter was a negro with disheveled dirty looking dreadlocks.

What stereotypes?

They obviously are the ones who believe in stereotypes.

It was out earlier today then......poof!

[Gnome1949]

This is what “re-imagining policing” looks like. Police and the public must “imagine” who are committing crimes. Then, they go and and arrest those they “imagine” did those crimes.

[TBP]

Because they want it to be a white man, and if not, well, it just shouldn’t be allowed to be true.

[PghBaldy]

Just heard on radio news break they caught one of the suspects.

[null and void]

Media blackout?

Black or Muslim.

Mrs Swan got the editor job I guess.

Renaming the paper the “Austin Un-American Unstable-man”

[Feckless]

I once wrote a letter to the Editor of the Waco Trib over this issue.

I told them if they report a serial car jacker and fail to tell me he's White that some Brother was going to get two in the chest for asking directions.

They didn't print it.

[T.B. Yoits]

The term is "aiding and abetting".

...and yes, it's not just that these outlets are spreading propaganda, they're aiding and abetting the crimes committed as well as racial discrimination when they identify white perps but not black ones.

[ScubaDiver]

"The Austin American-Statesman is not including the description as it is too vague"

So, according to these journalists, a description is 'too vague' if including it ELIMINATES more than 90% of the population (black men are less than 10% of the US population)?

Not only are these idiots partisan hacks, but they also don't grasp elementary school math.

[Dogbert41]

I just watched a News clip on boobtube about the shooting. I was distinctly left with the impression the shooters where white bikers. Seriously.

[SauronOfMordor]

They are also not mentioning the victims, who from videos I’ve seen appear to be white.

[Pollard]

and such publication could be harmful in perpetuating stereotypes

I think the thin black man with dreadlocks already did that himself
