I honestly believe that once the “media” realized that Zimmerman was a very “Hispanic looking” Hispanic, there was no story it cared to report on. It had jumped to conclusions initially, then had to react as photos of the shooter circulated; he wasn’t “white”, so they lost interest.
Interesting theory. So if Mr. Zimmerman looked more "white" you think he'd be compared to Johannes Mehserle, the BART cop?
