Well, I'm not sure what news program you were watching, but at 7 am eastern time, The Today Show lead with this story, covered it extensively, did their "sappy bullshit what are you feeling now" interviews. They had the FBI analysis Van Zant on, They discussed as a hate crime, they showed the grainy photo of the alleged killer and the car. It was called over and over a hate crime, so I'm not sure your point is totally accurate.
