Black-on-white crime in America

When The Media Treats White Suspects And Killers Better Than Black Victims.

This makes the hashtag #IfTheyGunnedMeDown so powerful. It's sad that some people have taken it to another level.

When The Media Treats White Suspects And Killers Better Than Black Victims.

Spining Crime in America. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/08/14/media-black-victims_n_5673291.html

This is by no means standard media protocol, but it happens frequently, deliberately or not. News reports often headline claims from police or other officials that appear unsympathetic or dismissive of black victims. Other times, the headlines seem to suggest that black victims are to blame for their own deaths, engaging in what critics sometimes allege is a form of character assassination. When contrasted with media portrayal of white suspects and accused murderers, the differences are more striking. News outlets often choose to run headlines that exhibit an air of disbelief at an alleged white killer's supposed actions. Sometimes, they appear to go out of their way to boost the suspect's character, carrying quotes from relatives or acquaintances that often paint even alleged murderers in a positive light.
