Do you remember the uproar in the aftermath of Katrina when several media outlets showed two AP images, one of a whites labeled survivors, one of a blacks labeled looters? My acquaintance at CNN.com removed the word looter from the second photo because the people in that photo had not been vetted as looters. As a result, CNN.com was one of the few media outlets that did not get caught up in the controversy. That is the level of care they take with each story since the Tailhook scandal. So I have severe doubts that anyone at CNN "shamelessly avoided" labeling the bombers as Muslims. Are you 100% sure they are Muslims? What was your take on the Oklahoma City bombers? Did you assume they were Muslims, as a lot of the media did?
