The thin blue line

The Dallas Morning News printed an article from the Associated Press regarding the recent incident in Philadelphia involving their Police Department. It was about a FOX News video showing the police pulling over a vehicle involved in a police chase. The police then rush the vehicle, pull the three people out and proceed to whoop on them. The article did mention a few days earlier a Philadelphia police office was murdered. However the article purposely left out the fact that this vehicle and the inhabitants of it, were involved in a shooting earlier. The basis of sound journalism must address: who, what, where, when, why, and how. This article ignores these basic concepts of worthy journalism. Facts mean nothing to the American news media, as emotion is all that is needed with them.
