I don’t think the press cares about the CEO as much as they like the revenue the story generates for them. It’s always about money. Same reason we see so many stories about Trump and his cronies.

A story about a child being murdered by a white supremacist could also generate revenue. It’s not just that.

They have a CEO too - this is just class solidarity.

It is not advertiser friendly.

There’s no spin that makes people want to buy. Healthcare logos are hearts.

I must admit this is my first time hearing about this, damn. I feel way worse for the kid.

It’s a pretty low bar to clear, I don’t think most people feel bad at all for the CEO.

Even mostly evil people clear the bar.

Where are the street cam videos and stills of the perpetrators? Where is the reward for info? Oh yeah, if you’re not a CEO it’s not worth anyone’s time I guess.

How typical. I’m disgusted that this doesn’t surprise me.

The incident took place in Lower Manhattan near the PACE University and likely close to the hotels the two victims were living in. Hopefully something gets distributed soon, so far NYPD has only released the remaining boy’s statements about what happened before the attack.

Not sure where the dining hall entrance is but that’s the side of the building it would have taken place at, apparently a PACE student saw the aftermath and called for help.

There are some stores nearby. Perpetrators came and then left on foot, I have no idea which direction but the information might be available somewhere.

Thank you for going out of your way to provide this info! Those two boys deserve justice.

I don’t live in NY, but I know folks in New England who’d keep their eyes open for wanted, violent white supremacists to report.

“The three suspects fled the stabbing on foot. They are described as being in their 20s with dark complexions.”

Still a hate crime, but doesn’t sound like white supremacists to me. Twitter screenshot took some liberties.

I love how no one really seems to care about giving the CEO a name
