Regarding the race of the officer, Utah’s Deseret News reported the police chief “saying the officer is not white.” The Salt Lake Tribune noted, “the officer involved was not white.”

The Taylor case was examined Wednesday by talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh, who said, “Note the similarities to the Michael Brown story [in Missouri], except in this case there’s no evidence the victim actually committed a crime.”
He noted Taylor “didn’t resist. He didn’t hit the cop. He didn’t try to flee and yet he was shot dead.”

He also pointed out how most news accounts did not specify the race of the police officer who killed Taylor.
“They are referring to the officer as ‘other-than-white,’ which reminds me of George Zimmerman becoming only the second-known white Hispanic, a title given by the New York Times.”

“They can’t wait to mention the racial aspects in St. Louis,” Limbaugh continued. “They don’t talk about the racial aspects in [the shootings in] Chicago, and there aren’t any racial aspects here in Salt Lake City.”

A quite reasonable response, and in the normal day to day world, it makes a lot of sense....except........

With MSNBC, CNN, and the major networks all so slanted and biased in their reporting.... and their ratings in the toilet......why do they continue to appeal to the 15-20 % Progressives and not the mainstream America ?

I have wondered how they stay in business. MSNBC is a tax write off, and CNN is cutting budget left and right.....they will eventually sink off the map or be bought by a mega corp that needs the tax break.......
Major networks ? Only kept afloat by their dismal regular programming.
