And yet virtually no media attention on mainstream media. Many are aptly highlighting the hypocrisy of the media in their Baltimore Protest coverage contrasted with their silence on white terrorism (precisely when we learn that since 9/11, victims of white supremacist terrorism surpasses those of Islamic Extremist terrorism).

I hear a lot of complaints about relative media silence. By the sounds of it, Dutch media reports comparatively more on the topic.

I wouldn't be surprised at that, honestly. We all know the media here will always stick its narratives within certain parameters, but the pure silence is astonishing even to me. My parents watch mainstream news in the morning and in the evening. They know all about Donald Trump, yet knew nothing about these burnings. Even looking at CNN's website now, not a single mention. Not even such a passive recognition.

The media has been very quite about it considering the amount they talked about the Charleston-shooting. :confused:

Right, very inconsistent. Baffling.

In the beginning there was no talk, then a couple reports got aired on networks and Fucks News found how it somehow is racist to white people. :laugh:

Holy crap dude. I live in the south and heard nothing about this. I'm not religious but come the fuck on. People should not have to be scared to go to a fucking church.

Is this still going on or has it begun to die down? I heard only one report on it at like 3 AM on CNN and it wasn't covered extensively.

I think, along with the usual reasons the media doesn't pay mind to this, is the fact that they haven't confirmed whether they have all been arson, and if so, who committed it. Snopes has an article on it, though to me it seems to try and do too much rationalization.

One user here lives in one of those cities. I wonder if they heard.
