Why Autumn’s murder wasn’t ‘news’
New York Post ^ | August 17, 2013 | Phil Mushnick

Posted on 08/19/2013 4:34:11 PM PDT by SMGFan

What’s your sense of a big TV news story? Might this qualify?:

Two teen boys lure a 12-year-old girl to their home under the guise that they want to trade bicycle parts. When the girl arrives, she’s strangled to death, her body thrown in a Dumpster, her new bicycle stolen.

That would qualify, no? Even if it happened in Arkansas or Michigan, we’d know about it. And if it had happened around here? Yow! Both local and national news media would be all over it, yes?

Well, it did happen around here, in October, in Gloucester County, NJ, a 90-minute ride from Manhattan. The victim was Autumn Pasquale. This month in court, 16-year-old Justin Robinson confessed to the murder while his year-older brother and accused accomplice, Dante, still faces murder charges.

Quite a story, eh?

But I’ll bet you didn’t even know, until now, about the murder of 12-year-old Autumn Pasquale. I watch lots of TV news, listen to lots of radio news, national and local. Not once did I see or hear anything about her murder, allegedly by two teen boys, for, good grief, her bicycle.

You see, in the media’s once noble, right-headed, fair-minded quest to condemn racial inequality, that quest has become corrupted by race; it has become twisted, hideously unbalanced.

There is no question in my gut, heart and head that Autumn Pasquale’s murder became a make-it-go-away, non-story because she was white and her alleged killers are black.

Black on white crime doesn’t exist according to the liberal narrative.

Just like he said about the rape and murders of Christian and Channon in Knoxville back in 2007 ???

try reading anywhere on national news about the Aussie shot to death while jogging....except maybe it won’t make the big time news because it featured a white kid and not one but TWO black “boys”....

Hey, YO!!

Maybe he's a little LATE to the table. But who in hell else is putting this stuff out there?

I got a lot to beef about with this Beck clown. Especially back 20 years ago when guys like me were trying to bring this stuff to light, and guys like Beck were ridiculing, laughing and insulting us.

Hey Beck, I went and put on my TIN FOIL EFFIN HAT you stupid white s!!!!. And all I found were idiots like you.

Now, all I hear is: "But WHOOO KKNEEEEWWW, OH!! JUST WHOOO KKNEEEEWWW, THIS IS SO JUST NEW NEWS TO ME!!!

Dumb effers all.

YO BECK, ET AL, YOU ARE 20 YEARS TOO LATE TO THIS PARTY!

Stupid white people strike again. Right Beck?

I MAY forgive, but I will NOT forget. This sh!!! is on you, BRO.

Par for the course for the socialist democratic frauds infested in the MSM. Reverse the crime. Three whities killed a young black girl and you would see all hell break loose. Sharpton and Jackson would be camped out with search lights calling in the Occupy Outhouse crowd.

There are all kinds of stories that get buried. Ever heard of that wedding planner guy, David Tutera of “My Fair Weddings”? He and his “husband” have decided to “divorce” because of Tutera’s need to bring a 3rd person in for sex parties. Evidently his “husband” is tired of Tutera’s perversion. Problem is, they have a surrogate pregnant with twins. Soooo, is one of these sexual deviants going to get custody of 2 innocent babies? Should 2 sexual deviants get to legally pay a surrogate have their babies? Notice how all of this has been buried by the media?

And that’s a sad truth.

At some point, whitey will revert to those demons that black grannies told their siblings were under their beds, waiting to devour them.

Wonder how they’ll feel then?

This makes the case for 0bama and Holder’s FORCED RACIAL INTEGRATION in neighborhoods nationwide, NOT.

W O W. I have watched his show, thought it charming and silly. Had no idea of his boyfriend - this baby thing is horrifying.

By the way, I'm sick and tired of the media's claim that the motive for these murders is ALWAYS 'robbery', such as the blatant execution of a 13 month old baby boy being pushed in a stroller. Was the baby a witness who was going to describe the perps to the police? Uhhhh, hell no, but the media insists the motive was robbery, but never racism or hatred when blacks do it.

How does the media deal with a story where an Australian baseball hopeful is gunned down by black teens in Oklahoma for no apparent reason? They bury the story!

Perhaps because it was Black on White it did not fit the main stream media’s paradigm? Perhaps it did not advance the perpetual victimhood that the main stream media portrays Blacks as? Perhaps Jessie and Al could not make any money from it? Perhaps the main stream media just did not give a damn since the victim was a White child?
