Was This Reported In The MSM?

Actually that video is from WABC-TV an ABC affiliate in Jersey City, genius.

Did you see on your networks? It didn't make the major news here. I don't believe it got nationwide coverage.

Do you understand what "mainstream media" actually means? I don't think you do.
 
so much snark, so little substance.

internet publishings and local news blurbs aren't the MSM as perceived by the public.

the litmus test is: has anyone outside of new jersey heard of this on npr or news radio shows? have you seen this on cnn or msnbc?

or did you only look it up online for the sole purpose of disagreeing with the op?
 
VETTE

Maybe we'll live long enough to see the Muslims decapitate many of our posters for sins against Allah. But folks kissed Stalins ring and wrote him love poems up to the minute he shot them. Our Usual Suspects never wise up.

Vetteman heard about it and he's in California, I believe.

Of course he does. It means whatever media outlets he at the moment wants to accuse of liberal bias.
 
exactly, he "heard about it", as opposed to it being reported.
.
in the MSM.

The story has gotten plenty of play on tinfoil-hat sites like World Nut Daily....I suspect that's where he first got his outrage du jour.

It's also worth noting that had the perp not been a Muslim, the Vettebigot would probably not have mentioned a single word about this.

I was gonna post something like "One has to wonder why vette doesn't start threads about all the other hundreds of murders that prime time national news don't cover."

Then I realized that no, one actually doesn't have to wonder that at all.
 
Does anybody remember seeing coverage over an incident in Mississippi about 2 years ago when some white teens deliberately ran over a black male?

that's absolutely true. but that's the whole point, isn't it? the implication is that quasi-terrorist hate crimes or in this case gruesome murders in the name of a radical fundamentalist form of islam are downplayed, marginalized, and hidden on page 6 beneath the grocery coupons.

and the question vette's asking is, why is that?

The Vettebigot, a man of limited intellect and no personal honor, has spent virtually his entire Lit existence choosing to make sweeping generalizations about people who espouse he does not agree with.

Ergo, in the vettemind all Hispanics are "illegals" and all Muslims are "fanatics".

important is the message, nay the messenger

Do you remember reports about white teenagers from Mississippi deliberately running over a black man, deliberately killing him?

Cool kids from good families.

no, i hadn't heard of this story.

are you making a point?
 
That's a rather silly point. This did make the news and it didn't deserve to.
 
no, i hadn't heard of this story.

are you making a point?

Sure am.

Every bit as horrific as the beheading case.

Circumstances were just as inflammatory .

Was all over the news locally. Was a blip on the radar screen nationally.

I doubt the mainstream media was protecting spoiled white kids in Mississippi acting out of racial hate than they were protecting a Muslim in New Jersey acting out of religious hate.
