TRUE MARTYRS AT THE HANDS (WITH A GUN) OF A TRUE TERRORIST
The media has been covering the execution-style assassinations of the three Muslim students in the Carolinas, though not as extensively or as in depth as they would were it three blonde "white" "Americans." But poet Tom Clark—on his always engaging and enlightening blog "Beyond the Pale"—does, and much more powerfully and creatively than "the media" seems capable of. See for yourself: here.

Michael,
Maybe it could be safely said that there was some covering going on here, on the part of Big Media, but really that's been, as always, more like covering up -- distorting, whitewashing, erasing -- than what the two of us might have expected, if we were so foolish as too be wanting actual coverage.
American terrorism and the gun-nut culture and religious persecution and Islamophobia, on these mighty foundations our nation currently supports itself, the grand POS that it has become. And pretty much nobody wants to know, and so, I guess, pretty much nobody is going to find out.
But oh, elsewhere we are now being seen for what we are.
