Why doesn't the media ever report on Black-on-white crime?

Question

Black on white crime is ever as much racist as white on black. However, the cases that the media ignores these crimes even as they tend to be alot more brutal. This article really puts things in prespective:

Answer 1

because most whites dont care . most whites could care less if a white man is beaten to death right in front of them they have lost all there pride in there race . most whites that do care like you and me are considerd raciest for pointing out the double standards in this society . the most we can hope for is that some one can come along and get the whites to care again and put some pride back in there hearts.

Answer 2

I think the media are afraid. This is the type of crimes the militant muslims commit throughout Europe and England but that too is played down. The reason is to quell any bursts of retaliation from the public. If these stories about the blacks attacking the whites made headlines in the first page? The racial fights would start. Then they would escalate into gang conflicts and eventually another racial war would erupt on the streets. I don't like it. Report the white crimes but not the black crimes. Double standards bother the hell out of me, but the powers that be do not want to throw gasoline on the fire. They are frightened of the outcome. I'm more concerned about the effects it has in the long term; I'd rather gas on the fire now and get it over with rather than the slow simmer to an explosion of extended violence.

Answer 3

As for the double standards, You are one to talk, o-k, I am very sorry about what happened and wouldn't wish that on anyone. An it is truly sad that someone could do something like this to another human binge.But the truth of the matter we have been giving double standards seance we were brought over here by your ancestors.So do your research a little farther back in time before you make Asuncion's as to how did more" how on how crimes?"

Answer 4

Because media is in business to make money and black-on-white crime doesn't sell as well as white-on-black. Simple as that.

Answer 5

i would like to know why its a big deal for 6 black guys whooping a smart aleck white guy. he prolly deserved it.
but in west virginia this happened around september this year. a young black girl about 18 y.o. was taken and kidnapped by 3 white guys and 3 white girls, tortured raped,
made to do unspeakable acts. yes they are arrested(to my knowledge) but this young lady deserved more and intensely media coverage than one white guy getting his butt whooped cause of his ignorance.
and before you all accuse me of being a racist. i am a white female, desert storm vet, god fearing butch.
a guy getting his butt whooped is of little importance compared to the treatment this young lady had endured.
may her family have justice.

Answer 6

They do report on it. What tends to be more overlooked, however, is black-on-black crime.

Answer 7

no they wouldn't do that but look at the coverage cnn is giving to tiger on man crime. they are giving it all they have. damn old nasty tigers. hate it when that happens!

Answer 8

I don't think that these people are racist. I just think the article was set up for people to believe that.

Answer 9

media outlets seek to gain money, thus anything that is more provocative that will in turn attract more viewers is aired more favorably. people like al sharpton, jesse jackson, and oprah have made their $$$$ on convincing black men/black women they have been oppressed(whether that is true you be the judge), and these talking heads attract TONS of black demographic viewers i imagine.

Answer 10

they report on it just as much as white on black crime.
