The next time you hear or read Sowell , Carlson, Hannity or Limbaugh talking about injustice in the Duke lacrosse case, shoot them an e-mail or give them a phone call and ask them where their voices were when injustice was occurring in Tulia, Texas.

Commentary: Conservative Media Cries Injustice Over Duke Rape Claims, Yet Clam Up When Victims are Black

Conservative pundits and columnists won’t let the story of rape allegations against the Duke lacrosse team go.

Now, thanks to a story in The Baltimore Sun, I think I know why.

Last week, black conservative Thomas Sowell wrote what was at least his second column on the Duke lacrosse matter. Sowell, like television talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson and radio commentator Rush Limbaugh, went on at length about what an injustice is being done to the three white Duke lacrosse players who have been charged with raping a black North Carolina Central University co-ed.

That same week, The Sun ran a story about the third Duke player indicted in the case. David F. Evans is a local boy, from Bethesda, Md., who played on the lacrosse team of the Landon School. Deep in the story, we read that “Evans’ mother is a founder of a Washington-based lobbying and consulting firm. Gossip columns have noted her friendship with Marilyn Quayle, wife of former Vice President Dan Quayle.”
