Two White Reporters beaten by Black Mob in Norfolk Virginia
Even the news paper they work for didnt report it for 2 weeks. Amazing how two stories with racial aspects get reported [ or not] in two different ways. Im talking about the T Martin killing case. The police dep. will not release the 911 tapes...why not ? It wasnt a problem with the Martin/Zimmerman case when the media wanted to play out the race thing.
update....ONE KID arrested out of the whole mod . And to say that it wasnt racial motivated is kinda hard to say being both reporters are white and the mob was all black . If not what could have been the motive ?

It's these kinds of assumptions that keep all this racial intolerance going. You're no better than the black guy who cries hate crime because he was attacked by a white guy.
You want to know the common denominator in these situations? It's not race, it's ignorance.

Of course, its definetly could not have been any other reason at all. What is wrong with you? BTW I used to live there 25 yrs ago, that place is HOOD they dont need much of a reason to attack anyone there.

A bigot is a bigot then? If they didn't attack them b/c they were white(which is the assumption, not the truth although it's going to be hard to get a proper answer) then they attacked them b/c they hate outsiders? or hate people?
I do find it amusing that more benefit of the doubt is given in this instance than to the Martin shooting. Perhaps it's like Eddie said, there's no white Sharpton on the news decrying this crap. I don't really want that. It would be nice to have fairness on TV though... an attack is an attack is an attack unless proven otherwise.

Dude shouldn't have gotten out of his car... and I find it hard to believe that if there were 30 or so people involved, any rational person would not have.
But just like the Martin case, I'm gonna need some more information before jumping to any conclusions like Booger has, and like O'Reilly and Mr. Parker obviously have.
For example... O'Reilly's opening would lead you to believe that the incident wasn't reported to the police for two weeks. Watching the other video, sounded more to me like it was, just that the paper didn't run a story on it.
I'd also like to hear from more witnesses (if there are any) regarding how many people were involved. Was there, in fact, 30 or more people involved (even as many as 100 if you believe what Mr. Parker says in the first video.)
But as usual... it's the national news that hypes the racial tones (not the local reporting). Is it really that hard to understand what's going on? It's about ratings people. Plain and simple. Your free market, capitalistic tendencies hard at work.
