The kid that went on the shooting spree yelling allah akbar in Utah and the taxi driver running over the college kids in Ohio I think it was.Are we getting too politically correct to realize these are "hate crimes"?If it had been a white,hispanic,black,christian or jew attacking a muslim,it would be front page news for weeks.

I have no clue. They just stated there was a shooting. Yes it would have made front page and stayed there. I think the news media is beginning to cover things up. You can't and they should know this by now. That is exactly right, when you say hate crimes. It is hate against the USA citizens. This includes me and you.

More seriously, how do you know it would be on the front page for weeks if it had been the other way around like that? Personally I don't see why it would have been.
Besides, you've managed to cite two, count 'em TWO, crimes committed by muslims, assuming both crimes actually did occur. I'm sure that in the same timespan thousands of other crimes were committed around the United States, by muslims as well as christians, atheists, jews, blacks, whites, hispanics, asians and first nations people. Maybe what the media is really guilty of isn't not reporting crimes by members of certain minority groups, but rather blowing too many issues out of proportion.

The Utah kid happened to be a Bosnian Muslim immigrant. That's already been reported.
I hadn't heard about the taxi driver.

Why don't you do us all a favor and post where you got the info. That way we could read it for ourselves and come to our own conclusions.
BTW, why weren't the hate crimes perpetrated on 2 white women who were almost beaten to death by a group of black youths in Belmont Shore (Long Beach) California on the national news? One of them kept getting death threats and had gangbangers hanging off her car every morning to the point where she had to have police escorts everyday to the court house. Maybe you have something there but I don't buy that the media is liberal.

Because journalists are lazy and can't be bothered to investigate, so instead they report Britney Spears' shaved head.

It's a Cover-Up.
BUT the Truth is reported on Fox News.
If, what you say is true, it will be reported on Fox.
(That's why the News Media & the Democrats hate Fox News. They hate the Truth.)

I would like to know why they are not talking about a cousin marrying, pro- gay rights candidate that is trying to pass himself off as a Republican. (Guliani)

Exactly. The liberal mainstream media won't admit that their worldview is wrong.
