| Media Statistic of the DayA little food for thought from Newsbusters: At the time of this writing, there are nearly 7,000 references to "George Tiller" in Google News. There are under 500 for "William Long." George Tiller, of course, was the Kansas abortion doctor murdered Sunday morning by a man who allegedly had political and religious motives. William Long was the 23-year-old military recruiter murdered Monday morning by a man who allegedly had political and religious motives.George Tiller dedicated his life to killing fetuses. William Long dedicated his to killing terrorists. One story still has 'legs,' the other is yesterday's news. Some priorities you've got there, MSM. Someone has already commented on Twitter saying Tiller was a public figure, while the soldier was not. Granted, but how often are US soldiers murdered on US soil by a terror suspect? Update - With this, I'm not trying to condemn one killer while praising another. Scott Roeder is a criminal and nothing justifies the murder of Dr. Tiller. What bothers me is the willingness of the media to smear the entire pro-life movement based on Roeder's actions while devoting very little airtime or newspaper space to the national security implications of William Long's murder. Update II - DrewM makes an interesting point in the comments. When Dr. Tiller was murdered, the White House released a statement on Sunday afternoon. As of 11:15 a.m. EST, the Commander in Chief has yet to release a statement condemning the murder of a member of the armed forces by a suspected terrorist. Comments1
It'll remain like this until Operation Pipewrench is put into action. Seriously.

What do you expect? To the media George Tiller is a hero and our soldiers are, at best, gullible victims.
With these two recent terrorists acts, will any brave members of the media ask Obama about Ayers again? Sure, Ayers used bombs mostly, but murdering people like William Long is *exactly* what he was trying to do. Posted by: 18-1 at June 02, 2009 08:22 AM (odYmd) 4
In yesterday's Union-Tribune there was a front page article on Tiller, with a follow-up article today on Page 3.

"I've already been snarked at on Twitter by someone who said Tiller was a public figure, while the soldier was not." Yeah. American soldiers have not been getting ANY public exposure these past few years. Nope. Unknowns. These two gentlemen in particular might not have been "public figures" personally, but they serve as the "American Soldier Everyman." They, as a group, have been demonized, ridiculed, misrepresented, and hamstrung far more than the group of abortionists. Your Twit-snark is horseshit.

I think you might be able to make that argument credibly actually.

On the Tiller killing at another leftist website, comments in a video by Randall Terry (who the hell appointed Randall Terry to now speak for all Christians opposed to abortion? ) are featured.
Comments a leftist pundit: "This is domestic terrorism, in your face. It’s the equivalent of an Al Qaeda video following a terrorist attack, disavowing responsibility but encouraging more attacks." (This comes from a person who used to be concerned with actual islamist terrorism, not Christian-hate. The perpetual jew and non-believer-slaughter monologues from countless islamist clerics are now equivalent to one vid from some guy named Randall. Right.) At the same place, a thread about Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, the man who shot at 2 recruiters and killed one, is described thusly on the front page: a 24-year-old Little Rock resident formerly known as Carlos Bledsoe. That's it. "More information" is given below, but makes no specific mention of jailhose conversion islam... that "little detail" seems glaringly absent. The real Christian-hate prevalent on the left, and in leftist media is really showing through in this situation.

Slublog: I think it is difficult to contrast the two stories. Tiller was a despicable human being in my view. However, the man was shot in church, in front of his wife and his children. He's a long known abortionist, probably the second most well known abortionist after the now repentant Bernard Nathanson in the United States.
Furthermore, abortion was THE topic over the last few weeks starting with the release of the Gallup poll data on prolife/prochoice majority support. Add in Sotomayor and the next few months of talking about "the same old stuff", to quote POTUS addressing the Planned Parenthood Action Fund in July 2007.

I agree that Tiller was better known, but his death hardly warrants the continuing coverage it has received from the networks. The murder of Long, however, has a number of national security implications, as DrewM pointed out in his post yesterday. Why was this guy being watched by the FBI? If he was being watched by the FBI, why was he allowed to commit an act of terrorism on US soil? What implications does this have for the president's Gitmo policy? How many more potential terrorists are living on US soil at this moment? The digging has begun on the second story, but it still seems far too many resources are being wasted trying to figure out what the murder of George Tiller means for the pro-life movement. It seems to me the national security angle is a much bigger story. Posted by: Slublog at June 02, 2009 09:03 AM (qjKko) 46

It helps if you allow comedians to inform your premises: Wanda Sykes said that Rush Limbaugh said that he hopes Obama fails, which Wanda Sykes equated with Limbaugh's hope that America fails.

I used to be a complete news junkie and never thought I could live without TV's deep channel lineup and two daily papers.
That has all changed. The only TV show I have watched in two weeks was RedWings/Penguins - other then the OTA digital weather and kids shows on PBS in the morning. We buy 5 to 10 specific shows a month from iTunes or RedBox and never looked back. News comes from the internet (newsreader on the cell, and site with filtered feeds), AM talk radio, and the local free paper. In the last five years, from everyone getting a morning paper on my end of the street (8 houses) - it is down to one. Their distribution, timing, product, and conglomeration of information just sucks - they are doomed. As soon as somebody breaks the mold an starts putting something else in those timeslots that make money - they are gone. Posted by: Jean at June 02, 2009 09:15 AM (L64A6) 55

The sleight of hand that Sykes performed was really something to behold, moving quickly from asserting that since Rush wants Obama to fail then he wants America to fail to then criticizing Rush for wanting America to fail.

The murder of Long, however, indicts our whole security post-911, if his murderer was really being followed and a suspected risk. Is there a new SOP since Prez Unicorn was elected?

It is kind of disturbing that the concensus seems to be that you can only be outraged about one or the other. We should be outraged about both, wherein some douchebag decides "He was a(n) (soldier/abortionist), and deserves to die", and acts on it. How is it that agreeing with one is righteous, while agreeing with the other is rotten? They're both rotten, completely contemptuous of the rule of law, and should be derided as the terrorist dipshits they both are. It is an outrage that the story of the soldiers is being ignored, though par for the MSM course. Piss all over them.

It seems to me the national security angle is a much bigger story.
I would otherwise agree if not for the Sonia Sotomayor nomination. A SCOTUS pick puts all the contentious issues into the limelight. My first reaction when I heard Tiller had been shot was the STASI story about the West German police officer shooting a peace activist. My thoughts were the debate just shifted from growing the support for prolife to elevating the violence angle that the prolife community has so effectively sidelined over the last 10 years. It was as if the worst thing that could happen to the prolife community just happened. The MSM now has the grounds to pile on the bullshit. They get to peddle the Rockefeller talking points over and over to avoid the obvious. Isn't a third trimester abortion the complete elimination of total innocent human life like the Western Europeans say? Posted by: WTF Capital Investments at June 02, 2009 09:29 AM (GtYrq) 69

What is sad is the the Media is missing an opportunity to rise above partisan demagoguery and put these crimes under the microscope together. This is a perfect instance to have a thoughtful and educational discussion on how the murders are similar (philosophical/political/theological motivations), how they are different, and why both occurrences are heinous crimes of terror.
Unfortunately, the Media is intrinsically wedded to the concept that certain crimes, when committed by an individual tied to a specific set of beliefs, is magnitudes worse and more newsworthy than the exact same crime committed by a member of one of the politcally-correct victim classes.

It was a personal choice.
Someone decided to abort Tiller. What's the big deal? Perhaps we need a rule similar to "shooting an intruder, and dragging his dead corpse back inside your house to make it justified homicide." The shooter should have found Tiller's mom, and stuffed his dead carcass back in the womb. Then it would be OK. Posted by: Pro-choice at June 02, 2009 09:51 AM (AQj/2) 87
This from Hot Air:
Update V: Robert Spencer hears that the shooter studied Islam abroad — in Yemen. He’s trying to get more details on it now. So I haven't bothered to keep up with all the blog wars, but isn't this Spencer dude the guy Cahrles Jhonson hates? And, based on lizard king's "reasoning," doesn't the fact that Spencer is being credited with unearthing this Yemen angle render the whole thing null and void? Bets on whether or not CJ will be able to write a post this morning on the recruiting station shooter without smearing Spencer. Posted by: Y-not at June 02, 2009 09:54 AM (sey23) 88

My first reaction when I heard Tiller had been shot was the STASI story about the West German police officer shooting a peace activist. My thoughts were the debate just shifted from growing the support for prolife to elevating the violence angle that the prolife community has so effectively sidelined over the last 10 years. It was as if the worst thing that could happen to the prolife community just happened. So are we allowed to question the timing?

It would actually be in the Left's interest to distance themselves from Tiller and let the buzz die down.
The trial is going to be an indictment of Tiller's practices, I don't know how the prosecution will keep out a series of horrifying images and statistics that go towards the "mind" of the killer. This clown will go to prison - but I doubt the abortion industry wants Tiller as their poster child. Posted by: Jean at June 02, 2009 10:14 AM (L64A6) 102

That is the worst part. Tiller's death is irrelevant on a national level, there is no reason for the President to be any more concerned with his murder than the old lady who got beat to death in the projects last night...and you know there probably was one. But yet he releases a statement. An American soldier is shot to death, on American soil....In Uniform and on duty..by someone who admits it's for jihad ( not some personal reasons) and nothing? It's a fucking disgrace. The FBI was following this guy how? By swinging by his house once a month? Is this how the FBI would have handled this under GWB? Do they have new directives regarding "persons on interest" under Obama? This is a muslim facist terrorist attack on US soil...why isn't the media calling it and treating as such?

@115 buzzion Not if it involves bankruptcy and a union. @122 Vic The problem is that WE HAD A LAW and the court imposed their will over that of the people. My point exactly. It's gone. We've lost it. Will the realization dawn slowly? Or, will it come all at once? Not too long ago, I was naive enough to believe that there are three levels at which we can resolve disputes over how the country should be run. The highest is reasoned and logical debate, the middle is emotional demagoguery, and the lowest is violence. I figured we were somewhere in the middle thanks to the left's denial of facts, advancement of lies, and results-oriented judging by robed assclowns like Sotomayor. But there really are only two levels: Reasoned/logical debate and everything else. Demagoguery knows no rules, and as it undermines reason and cheapens truth toward its own ends, it dissolves the boundary of civilization that separates it from violence. When a critical mass of citizens gain the realization that we no longer are a society ruled by laws, it will be time to do unto others before they do unto me and mine.

And the same breaking the law to change the law happening here for the past 30 years after we adopted a botched abortion of a constitution that combines the worst features of British and American laws (rather than the best of both).

brian: The shooting of Tiller was vigilantism, pure and simple. And it has no place in a society ruled by laws. If you disagree with the laws, you don't get to start shooting people. We beg to differ. Wait. Now you're saying that this guy is the point guard in a revolution against a valid government? Because that's what was going on in 1776. If you wanna rally behind a lunatic who shoots a doctor as the tipping point of your revolution, then you'd better be perfectly clear about what you're asking for. Because the only government response I come up with is "we'd better start shooting the anti-abortion folks." And I don't think you really want to die on this hill, do you?

Y-Not - It would appear that CJ does view this as the second "shot heard round the world".
To paraphrase the great poet Sobchak - We've entered a world of pain. Posted by: brian at June 02, 2009 01:03 PM (no7tO) 159
But please note that the media are not painting all blacks, or all muslims, with the same brush because of this one murder. No, that type of outrageous stereotyping is reserved for conservatives.
I also thought it interesting that the MSM, Andersen Cooper for one, was calling the Tiller murder "domestic terrorism." Gee, I thought that independent actors were not terrorists, but were simply criminals. You know, like the muslim who drove his SUV into the Tar Pit at UNC. The Lackawana 6. The Beltway Sniper, etc., etc., etc. Posted by: KWC at June 02, 2009 01:07 PM (qVRLc) 160
Of course Obama don't want to talk about this. It marks the end of the streak that Bush had maintained.
This was the first successful terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11/01. The Muhammadan was foreign trained (Yemen). Posted by: SamIam at June 02, 2009 01:10 PM (uwn4a) 161
One of these days Americans will get smart by
turning off the fucking TV while giving up their movies, pop concerts
and Broadway shows..or rather the entire fucking entertainment industry
which is polluting and torturing Liberty while causing severe
brain-damages to the stupid sheeple who cannot live without their
fucking shit-filled entertainment.
It's like the man basically said in the opinion published in Pravda 'stupid sheeple sucking Kingdom Hollywood's shit-filled anal cavity is killing Freedom' So the next time you are at a fucking Green Day concert or in the fucking movie theater or sitting in front of the fucking TV sucking Kingdom Hollywood's shit ask yourself if all the MSM entertainment shit was really worth the price of losing your Liberty.

T Dub,
That's some fantastic insight you have there. Got a newsletter or anything with more of your stuff? Posted by: G.W. McLintock at June 02, 2009 02:26 PM (ML9g8) 164
Too bad Tiller wasn't hacked to pieces and then his parts sucked up by a vacuum. Does Shop-Vac® make one of those? Hey--they could call it The Terminator® ! Posted by: andycanuck at June 02, 2009 02:29 PM (MB+jN) 165

So if someone shoots Bin Laden should he appear on US streets would you feel the same outrage towards such a lunatic? Especially if say a child of this psycho has been killed on 9/11. You know nation of laws and shit. Let the scum rot in jail. Seriously the more I read this nonsense the more I realise it's all about keeping the civil image in the eyes of perpetualy self-righteous left. No government regulation can make a deed right or wrong. The heart of the matter is whether one believe a fetus to be an innocent human being (and no one as far as I know doubt that he is once he is extracted and starts breathing on its own). If you don't you just say that: fetus is not an innocent human being, Tiller was no different than say a butcher or clerk or whomever. He was just an apriori innocent guy, who was brutally murdered in the same way store owner is murdered by thugs. Same thing, same victim, same criminal. On the other hand if you do believe that fetus is an innocent human being and at the same time believe in civility you will say: sure Tiller was a scum and deserved what he got, but we are nation of laws and we cannot behave in any way but prosecuting the murderer. But ofcourse it's never been a moral issue for the likes of Allahpundit and unfortunately Ace, co-bloggers and yourself, but an image one. That's why instead of addressing the heart of the matter it was nothing but a series of name calling ("murder enthusiasm", "unamerican" and so on) and occasional appeal to "nation of laws" argument. As If US troops do anything but murder people and as if should Tiller's killing turn out to be legal all will be ok for them. It's quite disgusting how for image sake some people on our side ready to rip their fellow conservatives in such a leftist manner. I would expect it from Allah or Jonson but it's sad that AoS bloggers followed the same route. P.S. Theres also a legitimate issue that Tiller has been shot in public place and front of his family. That here is what warrants in my judgement everything killer will face short of death penalty. Posted by: AlexD at June 02, 2009 04:06 PM (0Smvw) 167
Brian: Wait. Now you're saying that this guy is the point guard in a revolution against a valid government? We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. - That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, - That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness...

I do not know whether the speed is also a problem, there is always some problems, but this game is really good, I like it very much, pictures are so beautiful, I have a website. I will do a good job in the network as soon as poss Very grateful to the producers, has brought us such a good picture.Why I went to a map which, when there will be a shadow in the flash? Many aspects of the game I think the United States than in Japan too strong, and true, vivid, clear, great.ible, then enjoy the game happy. I want to say is, your viewpoint is not wrong, but many people do not like the idea we can not make generalizations, the need to prove that it is completely correct, it is not easy, so I only wrote his own opinion; on alibaba like sony and you can compete? Who said it was not clear, of course, it is entirely different industries, but how can you did a few years whether they need to compete with a market?
