If one or two of these guys turn out be the marathon bombers..
Will the media refer to them as terrorists?,,,,,Or does this word only apply to people of a darker color?
I predict you will hear a lot of" suspected bombers” rather than “suspected terrorists”.
Breaking tonight on the Boston Globe tonight headlined by Huffington Post.
“Bomb suspect caught”.....I wonder if it would have been “Bomb terrorist caught” if this had been a foreign nationalist?
