Would media go silent on Capitol attack suspect Noah Green’s allegiance if he wasn’t with Nation of Islam?

A police officer was killed and another was wounded today when a man drove a car into a security barricade at the Capitol complex on Friday, acting Chief Yogananda Pittman said. The story has dominated news coverage, but one important factor has been conspicuously omitted.
As of the time of this article, no major mainstream media outlet has reported on the religious ideology of suspect Noah Green. This is a sharp contrast to reporting on other attacks in which the religious affiliation of the suspects were instantly and loudly broadcast. But Green’s history does not fit a narrative. He was actively promoting Nation of Islam, a radical offshoot of religious teachings associated with black supremacy as well as anti-Judeo-Christian rhetoric.
p>By comparison, the professed Baptist faith of Atlanta spa shooting suspect Robert Aaron Long was immediately reported and became a centerpiece for subsequent news accounts and commentaries.
Nation of Islam has been disavowed by most Muslim groups for their adherence to conspiracy theories and hate. They have been likened to Westboro Baptist Church in that they’re not considered to be part of the mainstream of the religion they profess to represent. But unlike Westboro Baptist, Nation of Islam has remained a darling of many in mainstream media.
The only reporting about Green’s affiliation is coming from independent and conservative sources.
The Gateway Pundit reported on his last Facebook post:
When a purported Christian allegedly commits a crime, media treats them as representative of their faith. When it’s anyone else such as Nation of Islam, the suspects are suddenly unaffiliated in media’s reporting.

He’s a black leftist. NOI really does not matter in this case.

…no major mainstream media outlet has reported on the religious ideology of suspect Noah Green. That's because they are 100% hypocrites!

The left wing media won’t identify him as black because if they did they would have to capitalize the “B” in the word “black”. That would go against their ‘victim of racism’ narrative.

It does not fit the white, terrorist, Trump supporter narrative.

It’s been a joke for years. When the media doesn’t shout the race of a killer, they are a minority.

Not the first time the fake news media did such a sudden turnaround in the narrative. About 30 yes ago Badlands, a notorious gay bar in the West Village, right near where the Village People did their YMCA video,was shot up.
12 people were shot, miraculously all survived. Instantaneously the press decried this as another henious crime against the gay community and we need to do something about gun violence and blah blah blah.
The media really went crazy when it came out the perps father was a pastor, and not just any pastor but a NYPD Chaplain. Then, the guy's mugshot was on the front pages of the Daily News and NY Post and wouldnchya know it, he was a BLACK guy. Suddenly the story... silently...faded.... away

A follower of Louis Farrakhan named Noah Green attacked the White House and Capitol Complex earlier today killing one police officer and wounding another. The suspect rammed his vehicle into a police barricade before exiting the vehicle with a knife and being shot by responding officers.
Had this been a white male suspect the manipulative narrative about the need for capitol hill security would have been the preferred narrative of the media. However, with the race and ideological characteristics of the disturbed suspect now identified by independent sources, all useful pretense will be dropped and the story will disappear soon.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A motorist rammed a vehicle into U.S. Capitol police on Friday and brandished a knife, killing one officer and injuring another and forcing the Capitol complex to lock down in an attack that police said did not immediately appear to be terrorism-related.
Police responded by firing on the suspect, who died.
Yogananda Pittman, acting chief of the United States Capitol Police, told a news conference that he drove into the officers then hit a barricade and got out of the car, lunging at them with a knife in his hand.
One officer was killed and the other was injured, she said.
“It does not appear to be terrorism-related but obviously we’ll continue to investigate,” said Robert Contee, acting chief of the Metropolitan Police Department of Washington. Police said the suspect was unknown to them, they had yet to determine what had motivated him, and they did not identify him.
“Clearly this was someone who was actively trying to just get at whoever or whatever – we just don’t know right now, so we have a responsibility to investigate that to get to the bottom of this. Whether the attack was at law enforcement, or whoever, we have a responsibility to get to the bottom of it and we’ll do that,” Contee said. (read more)

“ motorist rammed a vehicle into U.S. Capitol police on Friday and brandished a knife, killing one officer and injuring another and forcing the Capitol complex to lock down in an attack that police said did not immediately appear to be terrorism-related.”
If this was a Trump supporter, they’d be screaming terrorism by a right wing extremist.
So, is it not appropriate to say this is terrorism by a left wing extremist.
