Remember the two reporters who were assaulted by a black mob some months back and their own paper didn't report the story for two weeks? And the cops didn't want to report it either?
That’s the news media... presumably it was already on police blotters. Police don’t run newspapers, at least not yet.
I have not seen any discussion about the rash of knock-out attacks happening in the 16th Street Mall area in downtown Denver. Then mayor Chickenlooper and the police department withheld the story of the continuing violence, probably for PC reasons. The story got leaked to the news sources who would report on it, but it seems to be hushed up again. Who knows if it is still happening regularly.
