tl;dr: 18 yo black kid paints swastikas on public property, Gets arrested. Arrest report mentions his race. Media runs the story but omits his race and adds that "swastikas are commonly associated with Nazi ideology and white supremacist groups"

Earlier this month, Fayetteville Police arrested an 18-year-old for painting swastikas on buildings, public equipment, etc.

Although the police press release clearly identified that suspect Taquon Jameek Vereen was black

Curiously, this fact was omitted from mainstream media reporting in WRAL, CBS17, and the Fayetteville Observer

However, the latter publication did make sure to note thatswastikas are "commonly associated with Nazi ideology and white supremacist groups" and are "widely recognized as symbols of hate"

The corrupted news media understands that their target audience will see the insinuation, but not the lie. They don't care if you and a few people recognize the lie. They want you to know they lie. It's a point of pride.

But wait, there's more......

quote:

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WNCN) — After being arrested for allegedly spray-painting swastikas on the side of a building last week, the Fayetteville Police Department said they have arrested the same man on charges related to pointing a gun at people and passing cars.


quote:

Police identified the man as 18-year-old Taquon Jameek Vereen and charged him with going armed to the terror of people and assault by pointing a gun. He is being held in the Cumberland County Detention Center under a $2,500 secured bond.


quote:

Court records show Vereen was arrested in the gun pointing incident the same day he posted $1,500 bond for the swastika incident.

This is a perfect example of the media reporting something that is technically true (ie swastikas are commonly associated with Nazi ideology and white supremacist groups), but using said "truth" to disseminate a lie
