This has affected the news multiple times. In Germany there was an attack, and the news didn't mention the attacker because he was from Africa and they fears they will appear racist, i don't remember the details, if someone does, please add the source in the comments. The Opposite thing happend with the Christchurch massacre in NZ, they didn't call him a terrorist because he was white, if the case was fliped, I would've bet the first headline will be terrorist Muslim. Instead when its a white shooter its always a "mentally ill" person. So it both hypocritical and biased, its only "correct" in one way, and not the other, and it affects news coverage without good reason.
