Why is this fatal workplace shooting in Nashville getting almost no media coverage?

[Anonymous]

A 23-year-old Tennessee man Devin Rice, is facing charges after police say he fatally shot his co-worker at a U-Haul store after an argument over a drink.

Metro Nashville Police say 23-year-old Devin Rice was taken into custody Wednesday after he allegedly shot and killed his 56-year-old co-worker, Fredrick Lytton. He is charged with criminal homicide.

Officers arrived at the U-Haul store where both men worked just after 5 p. m. Tuesday to find Lytton suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to the hospital, where he died.

So what happened, they argued over soda. Fred walked away, and returned to work, and the coward piece of human shit Devin pulled a hand gun, and emptied into his back.

It's gotten almost no coverage because Devin is black.. Fucking hell man. I guarantee if the races were reversed there would be rioting.

This is so sad. RIP to the victim

You answered your own question.

[Chazmatazz269]

The mainstream media typically drives leftwing propaganda. They deliberately refuse to report facts that are counter to their predetermined narrative.

[Asker]

Agreed

[Bklynbadboy12]

It's a sad situation but everything isn't about race bro. We as a people have got to get over our color issues. It's 2026 a man was ginned down in cold blood and your on here talking about it got no attention cause the guy thay shot him was black. What you should be saying is it's sad that this shit happens so much in America that we're becoming desensitized to it cause violence has become that norm here. Wake up people and see the bigger picture forget black lives matter forget white lives matter because at the end of the day ALL LIVES MATTER!!!

[Keithscatch]

It does matter because if the shooter was white and the victim were black, the entire country would know. If it weren't so damn obvious, it wouldn't be a thing. It is, so that makes it a thing. Stop hiding from these facts.

I barely see any shootings being reported nowadays.

But when sandy hook or stoneman Douglas highschool shootings happened I would see them being report all the time.

But now shootings have become a normal things and they happen every month most news media doesn't report on it.

Plus they get more audience reporting on donald trumps Twitter feed both left and right wing media make more money reporting on Donald Trump all day.

It's a business the shooters come and are easily forgotten 2 days later.

Plus they don't want mass shooters to get too much fame and get fan girls who glorify their behavior.

It's not a black person or a white person thing. Its business and money.

The rich of encouraging behavior like luigi mangione. Which is why all shootings not just white or black guys don't get reported on.

[BonzoInBitburg]

There have been 348 mass shootings in the US so far in 2026. They don't all get media attention because it literally happens every damn day in the USA.

[Asker]

And yet if we reversed the races, it would be covered heavily as a hate crime and there would be riots. Deny it all you like but this is what would happen.. The point of this was to point out the hypocrisy of the msm

[BonzoInBitburg]

Sad to say but shootings don't move the needle anymore. It doesn't matter who the shooter is or who the victim is, it's just another day. People are desensitized to shootings. Of the 19 mass shootings in the first 10 days of Aug 2026, I haven's seen much coverage of any of them. It happens so often that its no longer news.

[Keithscatch]

100% right.

[Anonymous]

You know why. Him being black and the victim being white doesn't fit the narrative.

[Asker]

Yeah pretty much.

[TonyMetal___1986]

Hang the p. o. s in public!
A criminal is a criminal, no matter what color he is, the white, the black and all societies and races shall agree that this piece of trash should be executed!

He left a wife and kids behind just because a crack head mentally ill punk decided to end his life!

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Narrative doesn't fit that's why.

A black man randomly punched a white or Asian woman in North Carolina knocking her out and zero news from the mainstream media but if it was a white man that did it, it would be on the media for a week straight.

[DonaldDarko]

Definitely deserves death because that's what his victim got.

[Curmudgeon]

You know why. It does not fit the Leftist Narrative. That's why.

[slatyb]

Because not enough people were killed. These sort of interpersonal killings occur frequently in a country where it's easy to obtain a gun. They occur so frequently that they are not national news.

[Agape93]

It's gaining to attention because you get 20,000 murders per year. A single dude shot to death might not even make local news. The dipshits race isn't relevant.

[TonyMetal___1986]

Too much hate, chaos and lack of faith causes the high rates of crimes...
Anyways, even if there was 100,000 crime cases, they shall all be mentioned on the news, no crime and no death to me are ok, or one which is more important then the other, it's just that some crimes are so brutal that makes you sick!

[SamIam96]

It's tragic but in the US, it's just a local interest story. Mass shootings are a daily occurrence here.

[canamlusciouslad73]

Dude will get the death penalty because he killed white folk (We blacks are about three times more likely to get the death penalty for killing whites than for slaying other blacks.). You're FOS like all your racist kind.

[Keithscatch]

Black folks kill 2/3rd more people than white folk per capita. Stop being so damn hateful and violent and you might be able to fit into society better. People don't hate you because you are black, they hate you because you act like a thug, black hateful person. You all brought it upon yourselves with how racist you have become toward white people.

[strateguy632]

They don't wanna get called racist so hide truth.

[TonyMetal___1986]

Better be called a thousand times a racist and never hide the truth!

[Billlewis]

I think you know the answer as well as I do.

[jshm2]

Lol, what makes it news worthy?

Shit like that happens in the US every other day.

[MrChinaski]

1 death is a tragedy. 1 million is a statistic.

[Massageman]

And this is a surprise?

Condolences and prayers to the victim's family.

[Chayce]

You should get money or do just about anything more productive with your life than worrying over something that doesn't and won't affect you.

[Asker]

Okay princess

[Saddlebread]

It wasn't a mass shooting. Single murders occur every day.

[Snakeyes7]

Looks like a white Christian male to me. I dunno what you're talking about. /s

[strateguy632]

The only devin on liberal cnbc is nunes!

[Keithscatch]

The shooter was the typical young angry black dude.

[FunkyMonkee]

I just heard about it 20:00 ago. Had it been the other way around, we'd never heard the end of it!! We'd be sick of it, already, by now!!

[msc545]

It's not getting any press because it happens so often that it's no longer newsworthy.

[Keithscatch]

Because the killer is a black male and the victim is a while male. The media is biased and racist as heck. They hide a lot of black crime on white's despite it being outrageously high.

[In_Trance]

You post this stuff all the time.
The answer will never change... which you already know

[Dargil]

Goes against their narrative.

[Cidknee]

Oh yeah, he's hell bound!

[Cidknee]

Also what a typical piece of garbage.

[astlavista]

The killing is horrific, but blaming an entire race or assuming media bias without evidence only adds more hatred.

[Asker]

It's what they did with the Karmelo Anthony case. They claimed racism when a black boy stabbed a white boy, and the black boy was sentenced to 20 years. They are appealing on the basis of race too.

[fishbone77]

Because it goes against the narrative.

[noohair]

So you figured it out.

[Darthskywalker6969]

Sadly a common trend
