Brit Hume laments Portland murders are getting more press coverage than a protest at Evergreen State College

Hume: “Leftist sympathies” keep the media from covering protests rather than “hate crime on a train or wherever”

From the May 30 edition of Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight:

TUCKER CARLSON (HOST): What is so striking is how little coverage any of this gets. I mean, you got to think that ten years ago or twenty years ago, if a college campus, Evergreen is a place that I have heard of, I mean, it’s a real college apparently, demanded that people of a certain skin color leave and then threatened anyone who stayed and then occupied all of the buildings on campus, shut the place down, at least it would merit like a note on the front page of The New York Times. It's not there. 



BRIT HUME: No it is not. And it is a story that newspapers, with their leftist sympathies don’t find as interesting as stories about white supremacists kills two in hate crime on a train or wherever. It is just the way it works, and this is part of what we experience daily in our biased media.
