Will The HATE CRIME Stabbing Of A (Suspected Muslim) NYC Cab Driver Get WALL TO WALL COVERAGE????
It should. This is what is wrought by the hate frenzy.

If the corporate media had any scruples, this story should be screamed from every headline and mentioned in every breath that the "mosque" controversy is mentioned.

2. Googling it produced 105,000 results
Everything from HuffPo to a bodybuilding site (?). Strangely, there was nothing at Faux News when I checked--just a lot of insinuation that Imam Rauf may be a terrorist sympathizer, based on cherry-picked comments taken out of context...

10. The only way it would make it to FOX is if Al-Waleed bin Talal was stabbed.
Oh.... on second thought..... they would really really really not want to mention that.

I found it by a search on their web site, but it's under the US tab.

EDIT: chopped up URL to prevent URL tracking hopefully

13. Yes, they've added it
It wasn't there earlier this morning, but I didn't expect they'd be able to avoid covering it.

They're reporting that "Michael Enright, 21, of Brewster, N.Y., faces charges of attempted murder as a hate crime, first-degree assault, aggravated harassment and criminal possession of a weapon...."

4. Scruples

It's what MSM Monsters eat for breakfast.

No, this hate crime will not get extended play time because then it just might scare those MSM monsters back into the closets where they try to hide from all those pointing fingers of shame.


I mean, really! How could anyone connect the dots from the hate/fear mongering RW newstalk pundits to the MSM play by play through supportive coverage of hate/fear groups to those who make hate/fear crimes their personal mission because apparently no one is doing enough to stop the Muslims from "invading" the USofA :sarcasm:

6. Faux News will run a special
Full of "facts" about how the terrorist cab driver was only attacked in self-defense.

12. Was the perpetrator a white male christian?
Why isn't the perpetrator's religion being reported? I checked several reports from different news sources. Nada.

Why aren't we ostracizing the entire religion because of what one criminal did?

BAH!
