First dog on the moon on the (Murdoch) media response Archived Message

https://www.theguardian.com/global/commentisfree/2019/mar/18/welcome-to-the-latest-edition-of-its-never-ever-white-peoples-fault (the usual "dump" method doesn't work with this page but such a good cartoon is worth donating one click to the evil empire). The always excellent First Dog on the Moon skewers the "Not us guv!" response of the media who've relentlessly pushed anti-muslim stories at every opportunity and yet now they are offended that any would ever suggest they are in any way responsible. As Psingh commented, there has been a distinct lack of collective pearl clutching from the chattering classes which is an ever present response to even the lowest casualty incident which has any suggestion of an "Islamic" perp. The usual "thoughts and prayers" tweets are all there but they are as meaningless and vacuous as ever. Just for a moment imagine if this had been a synagogue and a muslim shooter. The conclusions are obvious but probably anti-semitic thought crime.
