The article contends that major outlets like CNN and MSNBC minimized Gorman\u2019s death while giving extensive coverage to anti-ICE activists, suggesting a bias in which certain victims are prioritized over others.<\/p>\n<p>Key points include:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; A critique that media coverage is guided by partisan agendas, especially around immigration, crime, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/deporting-fentanyl-dealers-violates-sanctuary-city-policies-says-sf-supervisor\/\" title=\"Deporting Fentanyl Dealers Violates Sanctuary City Policies, Says SF Supervisor\">sanctuary-city policies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; An assertion that racial narratives shape reporting, alleging that <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >media give disproportionate attention<\/a> to Black victims when the killer is White, and vice versa, creating a perceived \u201cepidemic\u201d of anti-Black racism in coverage.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; A broader critique of how the media cover the Israel-Hamas conflict, accusing outlets of propagandistic framing and double standards in casualty reporting.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The author(s) label these practices as \u201cmedia mind control\u201d and argue that honest reporting would generate more outrage over preventable tragedies and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ice-launches-operation-midway-blitz-to-protect-chicago\/\" title=\"ICE Launches Operation Midway Blitz To Protect ...\">oppose aggressive immigration enforcement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>the piece claims that the media value victims who align with a particular political script and discard others, shaping public perception and discourse.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">For the Left, some lives are apparently more valuable than others<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2525042\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Another young <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/beltway-confidential\/4501916\/democrats-blame-victim-trump-murder-illegal-immigrant-chicago\/\">woman was murdered<\/a>, allegedly by an <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/illegal-immigrants\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"1972\">illegal immigrant<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4500363\/suspect-loyola-student-killing-illegal-immigrant\/\">released into the country<\/a> under the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/biden-administration\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"445\">Biden administration<\/a>.

It applies to both sides of the political aisle, but the vast majority of legacy media is controlled by the Left, even much of the so-called &ldquo;conservative news.&rdquo; The media does the same thing with racial violence. When a black person is killed by a white person, or God forbid, a white police officer, the media is all over it &mdash; even when evidence of a racial motive is absent, like in the case of George Floyd.

The media, with the help of academia, manufactures a fictitious epidemic of anti-black racism, and then wonders why race relations are boiling over.<\/p>\n<p>The liberal media plays the same game with Israel&rsquo;s war against Hamas. The media were so quick to forget, or even justify, the Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in which over 1,200 innocents were killed and hundreds of others were raped, maimed, or kidnapped. But as soon as Israel responded, activists posing as journalists bought Hamas&rsquo;s propaganda hook, line, and sinker. The focus went on the fake &ldquo;Gaza genocide,&rdquo; aided by figures provided by the terrorist group that didn&rsquo;t distinguish between civilians and combatants. Dead terrorists became more valuable to the media than dead Jews.
