Iberville:No Murders No News mike howells 2010-08-25 9:19 AM
A press conference highlighting that the Iberville public housing development went twelve months without a murder met with a corporate news blackout. An examination of murder and shooting statistics since 2008 indicate that, media coverage aside, Iberville is by no means a local hotbed of violent crime. These same statistics reveal that criminal violence is actually more pervasive in the high income, privately owned French Quarter than the low-income publicly owned Iberville housing development. This fact does not stop the local corporate media from identifying murders and shootings in Iberville even when these crimes happen in other neighborhoods. (text/plain)
