It's understandable, but not admirable, that the media only cares when it's someone they identify with.

- metildaa 8y agoIn this case, literally a member of the US media.
- Waterluvian 8y agoIt's really palpable when the media comes out swinging when it's about one of their own. Can definitely empathize.
- nonce725 8y agoI wouldn't call in "only cares" but certainly "rallies around" more than usual. Homicides in the general population happen regularly and are taken seriously, but if a cop is murdered? That's next-level enforcement. Humans naturally band together to protect a tribe they're a part of. Modern tribes revolve around work.
