32. I can't say I see the racism..
Edited on Fri Feb-13-04 12:18 PM by Heyo
.. in them running a story about a bunch of kid beating up another kids on a school bus. I believe the story focused on why the bus driver didn't do anything to stop or or try to get help. I have heard and read about this story from a few places, nowhere did it focus on the being black, most stories didn't even mention what ethnicity the kids were.

Is the implication that this would have been treated if they were white kids? Is it because of the story that this station ran immediately after?

Where is the racial aspect of this?
