100 blacks beat white couple, media bury attack
'That is sad and disgusting. Someone should be fired or resign'
There’s
outrage in Norfolk, Va., today after a white couple was attacked by a
group of 100 black teenagers, and the local newspaper did not report on
the incident for two weeks, despite the victims being employees of the
paper.
Even today, the Virginian-Pilot did not cover the crime as news, but rather as an opinion piece by columnist Michelle Washington.
“Wave after wave of young men surged forward to take turns punching
and kicking their victim,” Washington wrote, describing the onslaught
that began when Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami stopped at a red light
while driving home from a show on a Saturday night. A crowd of at least
100 black young people was on the sidewalk.
