The right kind of terrorist Saturday, October 18, 2003 Imagine the following scenario: Federal agents arrest a Muslim man, a member of a radical sect, living in Michigan on gun and drug charges. When they search his home, they discover a bunker containing a cache of weapons and explosives worthy of an army: an anti-aircraft gun capable of firing 550 rounds per minute up to four miles away, machine guns, explosives, thousands of rounds of ammunition, and booby traps. Investigators also find pictures of President Bush and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld with scope cross-hairs drawn over them. How do you suppose the media would handle that story? My guess that if it didn't lead the evening news, it would be reported on it. It would at least be above the fold in many newspapers, and almost certainly would be a hot topic of conversation among the nation's radio talk-show hosts. Michael Savage would have a field day. But what happens when, instead, the circumstances are identical, and the suspect is a white man associated with a militia unit? It gets buried in the Grand Rapids Press. And that's about it. <<http://www.mlive.com/news/grpress/index.ssf?/base/news-0/106640215218397 0.xml>> ---- Liberal media bias my ass. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
