Writing in Real Clear Politics, Larry Elder says the New York Times (NYT) and National Public Radio (NPR) are ignoring the black-on-white crime taking place in the "Knockout Game"that the NYT and NPR view reports on the game as "overblown" and "no big deal."
The papers claim these attacks "do not represent a trend."
According to Elder: "From a distance the media can spot some lone idiot holding up an offensive sign at a tea party rally. But when it comes to black perp/white victim crime, there is a different attitude."
He cites a 2006 incident in Long Beach, CA, where "a mostly black mob of 30 to 40 teens and adults brutally kicked, punched, and pummeled three white women, slamming them to the ground, ripping earrings from their lobes and beating them with a skateboard." He said that when NPR decided to cover the story"a month later"their coverage consisted of asking whether a black person can even commit a "hate crime... given America's history of racism."

Scouts out! Cavalry Ho!
Of course the jerks saying this live in high security buildings and ride around in limos — or they’re guarded by armed bodyguards. Soon it’ll be like Brazil where the uber-wealthy fly around in helicopters.
Claiming that blacks are NOT committing “hate crimes” will in the end come back and bite them in the butt.
Sort of like crying wolf in reverse. They are claiming that white people have nothing to fear from groups of young black males. Well if they believe that I invite them to walk down any Martin Luther King Ave after dark, alone, and see how long before they discover what real hate crimes are.
Prejudice and hate crimes are real in this nation but the perpetrators of these crimes are not who the media says they are.
So we will just add this claim to the long list of lies the media tell.
No. Sorry. Same old dog obama on sidewalks. Watch where you step, please.
“The beatdown means Moya will be out of work for the next four weeks while his jaw is wired shut so the broken bones can heal.”
And as long as the media continues to cover this up people will remain unaware and continue to be easy targets.
Thanks. Saw it. Hannity acted incredulous, but then he rides around in limos, lives in Oyster Bay...
What?
I CAN'T say that ?
OK
I don't take it back.

I think the lib media actually believe the victims deserve it for being white.
Rest assured, it was only a love tap. Really. No, really. They were just kidding. We just must have misunderstood.
Yeah, well one day one of these Knockout Game Deniers is going to find themselves on the wrong side of a fist.
.45 230gr Winchester Ranger T series will be my entry if I am targeted as a player in the Game.
And what good will that .45 230gr do you when you are laying unconscious on the pavement? They aren’t going to come up to you beforehand and tell you they are going to attack you.
The sad thing is whites do nothing about it.
I’m all for letting the perps go when they start killing the directors of these fine institutions.
What difference does it make?
No, they won’t advertise. OTOH, blundering around unaware of your surroundings isn’t a recipe for survival, either, is it?
Not long ago, the liberal media gave hysterical, headline coverage to a single isolated incident of a white man, George Zimmerman, killing a black youth, Trayvon Martin, in what a jury determined was self defense. Yet today the same media refuses to acknowledge and give more than minimal coverage to a wave of black youths systematically attacking defenseless white people on the streets of our major cities.
And the Trayvon Martin case wouldn’t have received any media coverage at all beyond the city where it happened if the Reverend Als — Sharpton and Jackson — hadn’t hyped it all out of proportion to drag in the national media.
The only way the Knockout Game will receive major media attention is if a white victim defends himself by shooting a young black perpetrator. Then the hysteria will begin, the Reverend Als will come screaming out of the woodwork, and the poor victim will be so vilified he’ll wish he’d just lain in the street being punched half to death rather than trying to fight back.
