What the mainstream media don't like to report

Agent 3 had a lot of time on his hands today, so has been reading the online news more thoroughly than usual. Do the lickspittle media tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth (he asks)?

Certainly not, when it comes to facts that might throw shade on the oppressed members of "marginalized communities". 

You know who we mean. Here's an example, the entirety of a report on CTV News about arrests recently made in Peel Region, west of Toronto.

The most populous areas of Peel Region are the cities of Brampton and Mississauga, in which the visible minorities are white.

Six arrested following series of shootings in Peel Region

Six men face more than 30 charges in total following a three-month investigation by Peel Regional Police into a rash of gun violence.

Police say separate shootings between Aug. 13 and Oct. 3 of this year saw multiple homes and vehicles hit by gunfire, and a 27-year-old man suffered severe injuries.

They say six suspects, all men between the ages of 19 and 21 have been arrested on a range of charges, including attempted murder and various weapons-related offences.

All six were held in custody pending a bail hearing.

In addition to the arrests, police say officers also seized four illegal handguns and more than 50 rounds of ammunition.

The investigation involved officers from the 22 Division Criminal Investigations Bureau (CIB), 11 Division CIB, Specialized Enforcement Bureau, Intelligence, Emergency Support Services and Uniform Patrol.

This report by The Canadian Press was first published Oct. 23, 2022.

That's it. That's all she wrote. Do you have any questions? Suspicions? Agent 3's search turned up the CP24 version of the same story, headlined

Six people charged in four separate shootings in Peel Region

Six people have been arrested in connection with four separate shootings in Peel Region over a three-month period.

In a news release on Saturday evening, Peel Regional Police announced the arrests in the shootings that occurred between Aug. 13 and Oct. 3.

Police say multiple residential units and vehicles were struck by gunfire in all the incidents. They add that a 27-year-old man suffered severe injuries in one of the shootings.

As a result of a multi-unit investigation, police said they seized four illegal handguns and more than 50 rounds of ammunition and laid more than 30 charges.

The six suspects have been identified as 20-year-old Kevonte Marksman, 20-year-old Elijah Kerridge-Lall, 20-year-old Shamar Lindsay, 20-year-old Nayshawn Oakley, 19-year-old Marquez Senior and 21-year-old Tyanthony Yee-Brown.

The emphasis of the penultimate paragraph is Agent 3's. There's one more paragraph, the usual plea that anyone with information contact the cops. 

What (Agent 3 asks) do you suppose accounts for CTV News' failure to include the names of those charged? It's odd, considering the CTV News and CP24 are all part of the Bell Media conglomerate. It's odd, too, that neither report had mug shots of the accused. Not odd at all is the fact that neither report used the words "black" or "Black".
