Worse than the Manson killings and hardly a word outside of Kansas.
Larry Elder will discuss the case after he finishes castrating Michael Moore.
Not a peep in Texas. I only heard about it because of FR.
Unbelievable, right? It is truly one of the most horrific crimes I've heard about. The mainstream media in this country is an abomination.
From the frontpage.com article:
Once again, we can be certain that if the racial cast of characters were reversed, there would be no attempt to close the court, and the media coverage-virtually absent in this case-would be deafening. A white-on-black crime of this kind would be front-page news for days, and would probably prompt official condemnation from the President and Attorney General on down. As we know from the reaction to the murder of James Byrd, dragged to death behind a truck, a crime of this sort committed by whites against blacks would put the nation into an official state of near hysteria.
What if the cast had been all-white? It would still have been national news. In 1959, drifters Dick Hickock and Perry Smith murdered the Clutter family in Holcomb, Kansas. Like the Wichita case, it was a home invasion, apparently motivated by robbery. Even without spectacular sexual cruelty, the Clutter killings were front-page news and the story was immortalized in Truman Capote's novel, In Cold Blood. Had the Wichita case involved whites only, the heroics of H.G. alone would have ensured wide coverage. She would have become a national hero, part of the folklore of strong womanhood.
I found a radio and put it on, but he's talking about Robert Blake right now. (How'd he do on Moore?)
