And so was the guy in my town who killed his wife and kids and so likey was the the guy who killed three people at Texas A&M university back in August.

This kind of stuff happens all the time. It is not reported on a national scale for a couple of reasons. As I said above if they reported every shooting by a crazy person that would be all the news would consist of. If all they reported on was terrible acts of violence the news would be so depressing that nobody would watch it.

I do agree that there is a bias in many ways. A cute white girl goes missing in Aruba (Natalee Holloway) it makes news because it is a better story for the mass audience than if an average looking black or Asian girl goes missing. Casey Anthony's story made headlines because of that picture of her daughter. That picture shows that little girl to be the most adorable thing you have ever seen so it made the tragedy all the worse and they reported it. But women kill their kids all the time across this country.

The national media picks and chooses its stories based on many things including how much time they have to report these type of stories so they pick and choose the stories that will make the best story and get them the most viewers. They aren't trying to subvert information about other stories, they are just making a business decision.

One last thing. When you put the guy from your stories name into Google there are many stories about it including stuff done by other national news companies like USA Today.
