As news organizations nationwide tout their end-of-year lists of “most important stories of 2013,” a note of irony is hard to miss.
“News 12 Brooklyn has been counting down the top stories in the borough for 2013 as voted by our viewers, and coming in at No. 1,” reports the local TV news outlet, “is a violent spree of so-called ‘Knockout Game’ assaults.”
And so it is. Starting very late in the year – specifically, since just before Thanksgiving, when three prime-time Fox News shows, “Hannity,” “The O’Reilly Factor” and “On the Record,” discovered the issue – the disturbing story of black-on-white mob violence has been on every news organization’s radar.

BREIBART - The major television media are ignoring the “knockout game," a vicious assault perpetrated by young African-American males against Jews and whites across the nation.
In the assaults, unsuspecting pedestrians are punched violently in the head so that the black youths can prance around exhilarated about their successful “knockout.”
Many concussions and even deaths have been attributed to this “game,” but networks such as ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC have studiously ignored the issue, according to TruthRevolt.
The black youths committing the assaults have even filmed videos of the incidents showing the violence and their subsequent celebrations, including some called "Polar Bear Hunting" and "Knock the Jew"; in one video one thug laughed, "White girl bleed a lot!"
Thomas Sowell wrote an article for the New York Post acknowledging that the assaults are "nothing new." He continued that the reason the issue has not gone viral previously is that the media have been describing them as "isolated attacks" and leaving out the race factor because of "political correctness" or fear of "inciting a race war":
Sometimes the attacks are reported, but only as isolated attacks by unspecified 'teens' or 'young people' against unspecified victims, without any reference to the racial makeup of the attackers or the victims — and with no mention of racial epithets by the young hoodlums exulting in their own 'achievement.'
To ascertain how reticent the major media outlets have been to cover the story, TruthRevolt.org surveyed the responses of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC to the attacks on Jews since November 12.
They all ignored the story in primetime, except for one two-minute segment on CNN's New Day which never mentioned the subject of race, only calling the perpetrators "kids", "juveniles", and "teens."
Fox News, on the other hand, has been reporting the story; On the Record with Greta Van Susteren reported first Monday, November 18 where Van Susteren denounced the crimes, then showed a video of a “knockout” attack in Pittsburgh on a school teacher leaving him unconscious in Pittsburgh.
