Somebody see if there’s a Brian Ross in NAMBLA and see how he likes it.
In those cases they take great pains not to perpetuate stereotypes, sometimes at the cost of withholding or obscuring relevant facts such as the physical description of a suspect who is still at large or the ideological motive for a crime.

I've bitched to my local daily newspaper for exactly this "politically correct" problem.
They'll report on some crime and state that police are looking for a "middle-age male, 5-foot-2, weighing 150 pounds and wearing a dark blue jacket."
Uhhhh ... how about the RACE of the suspect, you idiots? Think that might narrow the search or should we suspiciously eye all middle-age males with that height and weight? Jeez!
Should we be surprised that ABC lies? They were the same network that claimed George Zimmerman was “white” and “not injured by Trayvon Martin”...which turned out to be outright lies
