For those wondering how the leftwing media negotiates the common conflict between acceptable narratives and some semblance of the factual truth, the Washington Post offered a tutorial yesterday in its coverage of a multiple stabbing that took place last weekend in Detroit.
What seems to have happened (police are investigating) is that Terrence Lavaron Thomas, a Muslim, asked strangers at a Southfield, Mich., bus stop whether or not they were Muslim, also. Two of them said that they were not.
Thomas proceeded to stab the pair with a three-inch folding knife. But here was the Post’s initial headline:
Some loon out hunting Muslims, obviously – right? It is not until the third paragraph that another possibility is even suggested. And the minor detail that he, himself, is Muslim? Paragraph seven. The Washington Post: where the only “correct” is politically correct.

Ah yes Detroit, which has as one of its nearest neighbors, Dearbornistan, one of the largest populations of Muslims outside the Middle East.
