The Media’s Hypocrisy of Bubba Wallace “Noose”Hoax
The media’s coverage of the Bubba Wallace “noose” incident was also highly hypocritical. For weeks, the media had been trumpeting the story of a racist hate crime against a black man. But when it was revealed that the “noose” was actually a garage door pull rope, the media quickly lost interest in the story. The double standard was glaringly obvious: if the victim had been white, the story would have received far less coverage.
