Bubba Wallace, Althea Bernstein, Vaughxx Booker and the media

Which of these three incidents would pose the greatest threat to public safety and would warrant intense public scrutiny and police investigation?
- a noose being found in the garage of a black professional race car driver
- a biracial teen being called a racial slur and set on fire at a stoplight LINK
- a black man being the target of an attempted lynching while he was out for a walk in the woods LINK
Each of these events was one of the lead stories on the national morning news stations when it occurred. A noose was discovered in Bubba Wallace's garage on 6/21. On 6/25, Althea Bernstein was set on fire by "frat boys" while stopped at a stop light in Wisconsin. Vaughxx Booker, a black activist, was the target of an attempted lynching on 7/4. Wallace's story received round the clock media attention and 15 FBI agents before it was determined the noose was a garage pull handle. Bernstein's and Booker's stories have not received any further media attention other than the initial splashy headline.

Be careful, you'll be called a racist at the drop of a hate around here.
They pull it like a gun.
