There was a story on a local website about all the violations in Lakewood yesterday (i'm not linking it because it has names) It lists all the details including names ages and nature of offense. The article ends with this line.
Meanwhile, the Newark police division’s COVID-19 task force issued 29 for violations of the emergency orders in the state’s largest city Tuesday.
I emailed the writer of the article the following:
I read your article on the social distancing violations in Lakewood with great interest.
One line really caught my attention. At the end you note that Meanwhile, the Newark police division’s COVID-19 task force issued 29 for violations of the emergency orders in the state’s largest city Tuesday.
That got me wondering why the violations in Lakewood warrant a full article with all the details like names, ages and nature of the offenses yet the violations in Newark barely warrant a mention.
Are you discriminating against the predominantly african american population in Newark or against the predominantly jewish population in Lakewood?.
Thank you
