After the Trayvon Martin verdict, Fox News, as the mouthpiece for the white "grievance industry" that sees whites as the real crime victims, began a racial "bean counting" endeavor in their reporting of crimes involving white victims and accused African-American perpetrators. Rather than focus on the actual crime, Fox talkers highlighted the race of those involved in a school bus brawl and those accused of shooting (one of whom is white) a white jogger, Chris Lane. Meanwhile, their reporting on the GA school shooter did not include any reference to his being white. MSNBC's Chris Hayes commentary on Fox News' blatant racializing of crime as a "ghastly undertaking" is worth watching.

“One is black, one is half-black half-white, the other is white.” – statement from the Stephens County District Attorney’s office.
It is appalling how many people, such as Mr Miles, are trying so hard to find a “double standard” that they don’t bother to get basic facts of a murder investigation straight. One of the accused is white, and another one (who is biracial) has been usually referred to as black by the media. Just like Obama.

Funny how libretards who are the true racists, like to pick and choose how biracial individuals are classified based on their goals. Take George Zimmerman, who is half white and half Hispanic. Even though he looks far more Hispanic than white, he was classified as being white because the liberal media could have an easier time ginning up racial tensions by stating that a white man shot a black kid. Same thing in the killing of Chris Lane. One of the three is biracial, and they classify him as white because then it is only 2 blacks that racially murdered a white kid, instead of three. However, we have a half white and half black president, and he’s magically black, not white.

Truman… so telling the truth is being racist? Chris hayes is the newest failure to this msnbc time slot. I thought he was going to be the one to take Bill O’Reilly down. O’Reilly’s reairing at 4AM still beats hayes primetime ratings 2:1
