>A Pittsburgh TV station cut ties with one of its longtime anchorwomen on Wednesday over a controversial Facebook post that many consider racist.

Wendy Bell, who had been with WTAE for 18 years, had speculated about the likely profiles of the gunmen who killed five adults and an unborn baby at a barbeque in Wilkinsburg, Pa., on March 9.

“You needn't be a criminal profiler to draw a mental sketch of the killers who broke so many hearts two weeks ago Wednesday. I will tell you they live within 5 miles of Franklin Avenue and Ardmore Boulevard and have been hiding out since in a home likely much closer to that backyard patio than anyone thinks,” she wrote on Facebook. “They are young black men, likely teens or in their early 20s. They have multiple siblings from multiple fathers and their mothers work multiple jobs. These boys have been in the system before. They’ve grown up there. They know the police. They’ve been arrested.”

The Facebook post from March 21 has since been taken down, but is preserved in its entirety on the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review’s website and elsewhere.

So no one knows who committed the crime and she's taken it upon herself to racially profile and promote stereotypes? With people like her in positions of authority (positions only attainable to certain groups) using their platforms to exercise bigotry, groups like BLM are proved right in their activism.

Send this woman your support, /pol/. She must know that she is not alone.

More and more white people are speaking the truth, despite the consequences. I think we're waking up.

you're right, we don't know because dey din du nuffin

No. The entire point is we don't know who committed the crimes.

And even if you suspect some people within a group, there's still a thing called presumption of innocence. What she said was flat-out racism and inflammatory.

>>69721302
she's entirely right but you don't become a journalist working for a tv station if you want to say stuff like that
Either she knew what was coming and didn't care or she is retarded
>>
She's right but they're also right for firing her. There's a place to expose your power level and a place not to.

>she's entirely right
