The following basic assumption I make in this article is based upon conjecture, not yet fact, Truth. I have intentionally avoided examining further vital details regarding this story for the purpose of teaching an American habit of selling feelings practiced throughout my post World War II lifetime.
While following Fox TV News this morning, I learned:
Three youngish men in Indiana had been arrested over the weekend charged with being involved in a murder and robbery of a youngish white Indiana Protestant minister’s wife in her home. She was also raped.
The race of the young murder suspects was not identified…..which means, if the news habits of the past fifty years in urban America of the rise of black racist murder and pillagings, the killer and his buddies are black.
For thirty years or more toward the end of the past century into the first decade of today’s, the above ‘balanced’ reporting of crimes in my urban community of Minneapolis was to ban showing pictures of accused criminals if they were black. It didn’t want to upset anyone.
Feminists of the press- political community were worried about majority readers accumulating the wrong feelings.
Then there was a plague of attacks along the city’s Lake Street. Some male, his color wasn’t reported, during the summer season, was assaulting certain persons walking along that major business thoroughfare, stabbing his victims in the throat and/or torso. Eventually, the would-be killer was apprehended. He was black. All of his victims, 20 or so, were white.
It was policy at the Stribune not to stir white racism by reporting certain truths….but it was okay to accept expanding black violence racism. The newspaper was then, as now, a leftist feminist institution devoted to sell ‘proper’ feelings.
(One was supposed to understand, to “feel” then, as now, what it’s like to be black, no matter how savage the crime.)
That no pictures …..or comments about the race of the arrested, accompanied Fox’s story of the atrocity is remindful of that previous devious policy politicking by picture in Liberal newspapers.
I might be guessing wrong regarding race protecting blacks in this Indiana horror story! I shall see. Feminizing, that is, the politic of basing policy and action on feelings, rather than Truth, overwhelmingly popular at feminized universities throughout the nation, is an evil of all generations popular especially among the human female without children…..and among other leftists devoted to manipulating truth.
In the Minneapolis fraud, about the fifteenth victim, a GUY, was guy enough to sue the Minneapolis Tribune from distorting truth in its reporting by hiding the race of the attacker in its reportings. Thereupon, the newspaper changed its policy……It still maintained its difficulty to print any words dealing with human race color and crime, but included pictures with articles about the accused instead.
I don’t know what the newspaper’s policy is these days. I haven’t subscribed to it for more than a decade, but it’s been an Hillary-feelings institution for years, so you guess.
Being male, I shall seek the truth, for I am a twentieth-century JudeoChristian guy, bred and educated when truth trumped feelings….when civilized males led America……the world before the feminist ‘truths’ of Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem, and Hillary Clinton.
