Dr. Tiller, or as Bill O'reilly called him 'Tiller the baby killer' was murdered in church on May 31, 2009. The NY Times, echoing the voice of the left calls for a wider net to be cast when determining guilt - suggesting O'Reilly and other right-wing anti-abortionists are also to blame for the murder.
The NY Times also ran an article 'Seeking Clues ...'
The Los Angeles Times ran an article informing the reader that "Many abortion foes have condemned Tiller's killing, but there are some who hope they can use violence to eliminate the few doctors who provide late-term abortions or scare others into not performing them."
And another from the LAT - Abortion Doctor George Tiller is Killed.
The coverage runs the gamut from the NYTimes, LATimes, and the Economist which ran an interesting bit -
Home Grown Terrorists under their Democracy in America page.
Interesting.
The Guardian also ran a couple columns.
George Tiller was murdered.
However, let's look at another murder and the coverage.
An army soldier was murdered in Arkansas, standing outside a recruiting office with a friend.
The coverage in the LATimes was 11 lines.
The NY Times had a column - Muslim Convert Singled Out Soldiers, Prosecutor Says.
This attack occured 1 day after Dr. Tiller.
More Americans have been killed by Muslim converts, in the military than all the abortion doctors at the hands of anti-abortion fanatics.
Yet the media coverage is awkwardly skewed.
