I would look at it from the opposite end.....
If I were a well educated Black woman or man with considerable wealth, I'd be pretty offended that the media tends to ignore people like me, but every night they're doing a story on felons who commit heinous crimes upon early release.
Tonight's story features Tyrone with only 2 teeth and Jamal with dookie-braids, both were born and raised in East St. Louis and neither can speak English.
On top of that, regardless as to how many Blacks are being vicimized most of the victims they show on television tend to be WHITE anyway. We know that most criminals and victims are of the same race but you wouldn't know that watching the U.S. media.
Usually if the victim is Black....the most they'll show is their mother crying and being held back.
But if the victim is White....they'll dig up 40 year old prom pictures and other endearing photos and mention the 2 years the victim may have spent in the Peace Corp just to draw sympathy from the viewing audience.
