I don't think the press cares about the CEO as much as they like the revenue the story generates for them. It's always about money. Same reason we see so many stories about Trump and his cronies.
A story about a child being murdered by a white supremacist could also generate revenue. It’s not just that.
They have a CEO too - this is just class solidarity.
It is not advertiser friendly.
There’s no spin that makes people want to buy. Healthcare logos are hearts.
I must admit this is my first time hearing about this, damn. I feel way worse for the kid.
It's a pretty low bar to clear, I don't think most people feel bad at all for the CEO.
Even mostly evil people clear the bar.
"The three suspects fled the stabbing on foot. They are described as being in their 20s with dark complexions."
Still a hate crime, but doesn't sound like white supremacists to me. Twitter screenshot took some liberties.
I love how no one really seems to care about giving the CEO a name
He doesn't deserve to be remembered. Fuck him
Sure I'll give him a name

NYT has been faking being a liberal rag though the late 20th century, but since the Trump era (2015 forward) it's gone more and more mask-off.
While I'm here, ~~a~~ look up the Behind the Bastards two-parter on How The Liberal Media Helped Fascism Win which compares the German (often Jewish-owned) newspapers in the 1930s to US news agencies in the 21st century. Spoiler: The owners and editors of the news identify way more with ownership class than working-class Jews (or in the US, anyone who is marginalized who isn't rich).
NYT has been around since before the civil war.
I'll let you have a guess what their stance on slavery was. They always have punched left.
NYT on slavery
“Emancipation, whenever it comes, must be the work of the Slave States themselves. They must adopt it from a conviction of its necessity to their own well-being.”

It's not like the story hasn't been covered at all, The Independent and ABC News have both published the incident, it's showing up in Yahoo and other News Feeds, and the NYPD are searching for the three suspects. The story probably just isn't selling as well as the gunman, unless OOP has actual proof that the story crossed NYT suit's desk and got rejected because of the victim's status?
If they did give it more time people might complain it was distracting us from the message the gunman wanted to send.
It's also, no matter how sad and fucked up, a local story whereas the killing of a CEO who has fucked over people across the country is a national story.
If that teenager was a CEOs son I bet there'd be lots of coverage. Guaranteed.
