Eat the Pretzel
WGBH’s “Beat the Press” is asking why the killing of a white high-school student in well-to-do Lincoln-Sudbury has received far more coverage than any murder in not-so-well-to-do Boston.
As I noted a couple of months ago, newsmedia can’t win when it comes to balancing homicide reporting since homicides are so unbalanced in demographic and geographic distribution.
