"white police officer and an eminent black scholar"
Christ, am I the only one to notice the perverse hypocrisy in this?
In general, journalists make every word count because every word costs the publication money. Every word and phrase and comparison is intentional and meaningful. And they try to be as offensive and provoking as possible without being blatant and crude (although they seem to be crossing that line all too often these days).
The white policeman...the black scholar. Let's act as if policemen and scholars are regarded as having similar standing in a community.
That's not racial profiling, riiiight?
