Should the media apologize to white males for misreporting NYC bomber?

I know this is a somewhat hypothetical sounding question, but I think we all know that Big Media was trying to convince their lemming audiences that it was a Sarah Palin t-shirt wearing Tea Party member that tried to perpetrate this latest terrorism attempt. We now know that the perp in the NYC bombing case was Middle Eastern; if the suspect was reported as any other race than white, it is highly plausible that the race industry would be coming out of the woodwork demanding retractions, not that our media wouldn't beat them to the punch on their mea culpas.

    That will never happen! The news media is strictly anti-White Male, unless they are filthy rich or part of their team. You must remember they say things, because they know there will be no retributions for remarks. Profiling White Males is ok because we are easy targets and have thick skin. The same with Christians easy targets. But Justice always will prevail.This is simply put out there because of the Arizona Bill. Profiling we won't have any of that unless they are White Males or Christians. See how wrong public opinion has been corrupted.

    Excellent, excellent question. I also heard that it was a "white male" and have heard no apologies for that. Of course, I expect none. I'm surprised they didn't report that it was Sarah Palin herself that tried to blow up Times Square.

    What idiots!

    I didn't think the guy had been tried yet let alone found guilty. Anyway, they have the wrong man.
