I notice that Tribune readers have given that story an average rating of 1.2 stars out of five. They don't seem to be buying it either.

We do not reference race unless it is a fact that is central to telling the story.

The circular part of this logic is that they assume race is central in white-on-black crimes, precisely because they are white-on-black, and assume it is irrelevant in black-on-white crime.
