I don't really know myself. Maybe they didn't want to cause an uproar or offend any Muslims. Maybe being Muslim had nothing to do with it. Or maybe they think that by telling people this, everyone would begin to resent Muslims. The problem with this is that not all Muslims are like that. However, i don't agree with the Muslim religion but that's not a reason for anyone to resent hate them. But i do agree that they talk too much about Anna Nicole Smith. There are more pressing issues than her death that happened days ago! I'm so tired of hearing about her.

There are certain minority configurations which are protected by the press, usually ones which are prone to newsworthy acts of violence or crime. Kind of weird. Around here, you know that a perpetrator is African-American when the press does not report what race they are. If they are anything else, their race is in the lead sentence of the article. This even extends to police descriptions. Go figure.
I am not being bigoted here, I am pointing out the bigotry in the press.

The liberal main stream media will omit what ever they have to, to hide the facts, And the facts are that ALOT of muslims wackos are out to kill Americans And if people start realizing that then maybe people will go somewhere where they can get the truth for a change.
Of course I care that they want us all dead no matter the cost.

Typical Fox News fan making remarks of anything that can cause hate. Assuming that you are right then how many Christians are in the middle east killing Muslims? I've been rob, shot at, broken in to my house, car jacked and nearly stab. All done by "Christians" here in the states. What makes you different?

It's ok to point out Christians and Jews (example: Mitt Romney is a Mormon) but it's "racial profiling" if you point out someone as being a Muslim (especially if they've been accused of wrongdoing).
The old' liberal press double standard in practice...

Well, you seem to know he was Muslim. They must have said it somewhere (hint: news broadcast).
Did they make it a point that Timothy McVey was Christian? (answer:yes).
Does any of the above change a thing? (answer: No)
Does any of the above mean anything to the protection of the US? (answer: No)
What do you propose doing? Lock up all Muslims? (Correct answer: No)
Stop the racism.

I don't think his religion really matters.
My doctor is Muslim. She delivered my son and she didn't try to hurt either of us. As a matter of fact, she was the best doctor I've ever had. I love her!

I don't know - why won't the media report that the man who shot and killed 3 people at a business meeting in Philadelphia was a Christian?

i guess cuz people are starting to get really racist towards them, and not all muslims are like that [terrorist, they all arent] just like how some people still associate germans as Nazis, when they arent anymore--and yet that was only some germans that were like that, plus it was over 60 years ago!. so i guess thats why
