It's probably just an after-affect from the way many major news outfits conducted themselves during the past few years, specifically in regards to what seemed like a deliberate effort to create racial tensions. I do believe minorities are disproportionately affected by unchecked LE (and institutional) power. I also have seen first hand some unsavory reporting (such as referring to fully grown men as children in order to create a more dramatic effect).
Yeah, the media has been stoking those racial tensions for decades - ever since they started poking their noses into lynchings and firebombing houses and churches back in the good old days, they have just ratcheted up racial tension in this country when race relations were humming along perfectly fine.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
