Option 2 for 1/31: Why isn’t the media talking about another 9-year-old girl killed by political violence in Arizona?


Why isn’t the media talking about another 9-year-old girl killed by political violence in Arizona?:
After reading the above link, say whether or not you'd heard of this shooting, and if you had not, why you think the media has not covered it.

Why was this 9-year-old, Brisenia, shot?

Also, what might it have to do with Women's Studies?
