NBC, ABC, CBS, andCNNshow zero results for reports on the 5-year-old white child allegedly executed by black 25-year-old neighbor
Four major news networks have not reported on a story of a 5-year-old white child who was allegedly shot in the head at point-blank range by a 25-year-old black man while he played in the street.
“Cannon Hinnant Say his name
@CNN @NBCNews @CBSNews@ABC,” Jason Howerton of the
Blaze tweeted, along with screenshots from four major news networks showing no coverage of the
execution-style murder of 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant. The
Washington Examiner also confirmed the four networks' result pages showed no coverage as of Wednesday.
Police believe convicted felon Darius Sessoms approached the young boy earlier this week and shot him in the head in front of his two young sisters in North Carolina. He had no apparent motive except for a family member’s theory that Hinnant rode his bicycle through Sessoms’s yard.
Daniel Horowitz of
Conservative Review pointed out the several felony convictions on Sessoms’s record and
asked in an article, titled “Justice for 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant means locking up violent criminals,” why the alleged killer wasn’t locked up in the first place.
Why aren’t Republican senators in North Carolina pushing endless legislation to toughen sentencing on gun and drug felons and parole violators who are almost always the sort of people who wind up committing these heinous acts?” Horowitz wrote in reference to the
suspected killer’s criminal record. “Instead, both parties are obsessing about weakening our system even more under the guise of a racial inequality that is actually the other way around.”
Horowitz also asked why race was a prevalent issue in the death of George Floyd while in police custody in Minneapolis, but the death of Hinnant is ignored by national media outlets.
In the new America that is driven by racial politics rather than justice, what do you think would happen if a white man killed a 5-year-old black boy on his bike execution-style, regardless of racial motivations?"
He continued: “This happened in Wilson, North Carolina, except it was a black man and a white boy. Now there are crickets from the political class. No kneeling, foot-washing, renaming of American symbols, endless legislation to lock up career criminals like this alleged perpetrator, or frantic press releases from every organization known to man to mourn the loss of life. And most certainly, there seems to be no expectation of rioting. Why not?”
