    The shooting that involved a Chinese man who shot didn't get much coverage .
    It got far less coverage then the buffalo shooting.
    While conservative media covered both events fairly evenly.
    And lying biden concentrated on the buffalo shooting and white supremist.

    Is there any reason why you are writing the name "Biden" with a small b?

    False claim. It got plenty of coverage.

    https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/15/us/orange-county-california-church-shooting/index.html

    And tons more.

    So the real question is, why are you making this false claim?

    Are you lying, expressing an emotion, or were you told this by some right-wing propaganda source?

    Oh yes - and I guess it is a sign of stupid dis-respect to write Biden as biden.

    Ten deaths versus one.
    Victims perceived (correctly or not) as American rather than foreign.
    Video and the "manifesto" online immediately providing a lot of headline-grabbing information to report rather than only basic information available over time.
    Apparent motive linked (correctly or not) to widely discussed socio-political issues rather than apparent motive linked to a foreign conflict most Americans don't even know or care about.

    Other things that can effect the general scale of coverage in general, which may or may not have been involved here include; the timing of the incident and it becoming known, how and when any official statements are made, the availability of publish-quality images of suspects, offenders or the scene, the "saleability" of those images (e.g. a professional school picture of an attractive teenage girl tends to get more coverage than a blurry snap of an average, unemployed, middle-aged man), the extent and quality of local media coverage (as it is routinely blindly copied by national and international media).

    That is no excuse.

    Writing Biden as biden was done on purpose and is a very narrow-minded attack without any style.

    So "biden" is just a thing for you?
