The man who shot 5 PA cops yesterday, killing 3, is a young white male. Rightwing media is not covering the case [View all]

Yesterday. Daily mail commenters were speculating, hoping really, that the shooter was a Mexican immigrant. Now that he has been identified as white, no front page stories. No gnashing of teeth as they did for the white woman killed by a Black man. No attention from Trump. Either a story fits their narrative or it's ignored.
