THE MINNESOTA SCHOOL SHOOTINGS
There has been plenty of TV coverage of the school massacre in remote northern Minnesota. Tons of stories at Google News and Yahoo. Plus full Drudge treatment.
But that hasn’t stopped some grievance-mongers from complaining that racism against Native Americans is somehow affecting news coverage. Check out a few of the letter-writers to TV Newser (here also).
A saner reader asks:
Could the lesser coverage of Red Lake have something to do not with the ethnic origin of the victims and shooter, but the fact that Columbine was a 30-minute drive from Denver, and Red Lake is 250 miles from Minneapolis?
Hey, stop making sense!
Update: Regarding the bizarre “NativeNazi” angle, Wes Roth notes that the Google cache of shooter Jeff Weise’s postings is available here.
