Why do certain cases of police brutality on blacks get in the spotlight and some others don't?

Why was the Brelo case, something that happened in 2012, not in the line of the media's brigade of police brutality?

Why was it until the verdict days ago that it made it on the MSM?

Look at these cases that have only have a medium amount of outrage and awareness and NO NATIONAL DEBATE:

John Crawford

Darrien Hunt

Brelo Case

Tamir Rice


If anything these cases should have blown up on FOX and CNN and other TV networks and stayed in people's minds.


And look at the cases that got the biggest hype and social fire and covered protest movements:

Mike Brown

Trayvon Martin

Freddie Gray

Well, my theory is, is that those cases are probably are un-defendable(even though some still try to). Meaning that the media loves cases like trayvon or brown, where the truth isn't as blatant so it can play both sides of the field(the discussion on police brutailty/racism and the discussion on what's wrong with black people/culture) and milk the story as long as possible.

Mike brown had a media black out until social media and def places like the coli blew that shyt wide open cause of the riot geared cops showing up.

-edit. Check the mike brown thread. nikkas was talking about how it wasn't being reported at all.
