As Allen West notes, now that the race of the attackers has been identified, will it matter to the media? I’m guessing no. The below article from the Daily Mail makes no mention of race.

Philadelphia police have released surveillance video footage showing the group of teenage girls accused of assaulting a Temple University student with a brick.
The 19-year-old woman, who has declined to be identified, was walking with her boyfriend just off campus on Friday evening when a group of about 10 teenage girls began taunting them and then followed them for a block.
Police say one of the girls then struck the female student in the face with a brick while the other suspects tried to rob the student’s boyfriend. The victim was left with dislocated teeth and a fractured jaw.
‘My boyfriend pushed the girl away from me that hit me in the face and then the girl’s sister came at me with a brick,’ the victim told WCAU.
‘I tried to get away as fast as I could. My teeth were halfway out of my mouth. I wasn’t thinking about anything besides getting to safety.’
Police say the suspects then fled the area by boarding a local bus. Surveillance video was released on Monday and shows the suspects are a gang of teenage girls thought by police to be between the ages of 16 and 17.
The victim said she was hit twice with the brick, first in the face and then in the side of the head. ‘Her teeth were out of place,’ her 20-year-old boyfriend said. ‘It was terrible, it was terrifying.’
