Horror spread quickly across America as the story unfolded: An Army
psychiatrist went on a shooting rampage at Fort Hood in Texas, killing
13 and wounding 30. But as more information emerged, clearly pointing
to an act of terrorism, many in the "news" media simply chose not to
report news.
By late afternoon, it emerged that the shooter's name was
Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan. But that night, CBS and NBC completely avoided
mentioning that the shooter was a Muslim. ABC's Charles Gibson
suggested he was a "Muslim convert," which wasn't right, but at least
he wasn't playing hide-and-seek with the facts. ABC reporter Martha
Raddatz spoke for the media in choosing this tidbit: "As for the
suspect, Nidal Hasan, as one officer's wife told me, 'I wish his name
was Smith.'"
