Cannon Hinnant, a five year old boy was shot and killed by a 25 year old man, but there is no mention of this horrific crime anywhere in the mainstream U.S. media. Oh, the victim is white and the alleged assailant is black. At least the U.K. has outlets brave enough to report the story:

Google this boy's name. It's all over the news, including the Washington Post, with stories that are posted at the same time as TheSun that you linked.

This story is all over mainstream media. Just google the name, before everyone piles on and says it should be covered.

It's being covered. Extensively.

A few MSM outlets have covered it (Fox, People) but the racial element is being downplayed

Yes there are stories written but please be honest, if the races were reserved, you know CNN would be talking about it 24/7.
