Your reading way too much into it. Their was a manhunt, so her name needed to be plastered everywhere as well as her photo to actively find her. The others were captured at the scene of the crime. This YouTuber- Phillip DeFranco was one of the first to start the trend of not glorifying shooters by giving their names, and post Parkland shooting, other shooters like the one in New Zealand had their name, and picture and video repressed heavily, to the point of a country making it criminal to share/have.

It's not the MSM with the agenda it's y'all pushing an agenda hat doesn't exist. The New Zealand shooter killed 50 Muslim people and his name got extremely little coverage compared to the Charleston or Parkland shooter, why (doesn't that fit the liberal agenda)? Because a Youtuber- helped start a trend on his media channel a well as others that spread across the media to leave shooters nameless post-Parkland. Because of all the kids who started planing or were caught planning their own school shootings/mass shootings. The only time this rule is broken for mass shooters is when they are still at large... hence the girl who committed suicide earlier.They gave her name and description so they could catch her before she harmed anyone, not to push an agenda. The Youtube shooter who was also clearly a liberal got lots of media coverage, partially because she attacked a media company...

Then death toll also lays a role as well, low death toll shootings are less important so Charleston/Parkland/San Bernardino/Orlando/Las Vegas all outweigh this shooting hence they got tons of coverage.

Shooters are mentally ill.

TG, according to the narrative, are *normal* and *healthy.*

Doesn't fit the narrative = buried.

No reason for 8 pages on this. It wasn't covered because this shooting doesn't support the narrative. If it was a white man with an AR we would still be seeing the david hogg's of the world talking about it.

Simple as that.

A white 18 year old and a white 16 year old doesn't qualify for Fox News to cover it?

The question should be, "what is trump doing about this?"

What, exactly, do you expect him to do? If he spoke after every shooting he may as well start a 24/7 channel.
