A murder the media won't cover

Warning, the details of this murder are horrendous. However, despite the sensational elements of this story the mainstream media refuses to cover it. I will leave it to you to decide why or how the major news divisions could ignore something like this, but go on about Anna Nicole and Britney for months.

Wow, that is terrible. I never heard a word about it.

If you do a search for it you will only find it on blogs and independent news sites. I don't even know if Drudge has posted on it.

And yet it is completely ignored by the media. I realize many consider the media to be way left and have chosen to ignore this. Personally I think the media is bottom-feeders and will report on anything that can generate viewers. I would think something as horrible as this would make CNN, MSNBC or even Fox.

dude, that's just wrong

Frankly, I'm surprised FAUX didn't cover it. They love their stories about missing or murdered cute white gals.

Where's Rita Cosby when you need her?

man this is just so wrong. This is why I believe in the punishment shoudl fit the crime. If found guilty, none of these suspects should be allowed to live, even if they did not take part in any of this, just knowing it was going on is bad enough.
I cannot even fathom what these two went through.

Since no one else will say this; This case is being ignored because the suspects are BLACK.
Are they, the media, afraid for being called racists?

Horrible details and I hope those who did this will be punished.

I was reading about this last week. What those animals did to that couple was horrendous. If it was a perfect world, my perfect world, they would suffer the same torture as they put those kids through.

I do agree that if the races were reversed it would have been plastered all over the news as the worst hate crime in history instead of just a car jacking gone bad.
