Stupid Newspaper News

I used to live Havre MT. and so I like to read what is going on the in Havre.
On October 30, the Havre Daily News wrote this article:
Breaking news: Jury convicts Ghostbear of sexual assault
Convicts of alternate charge in case involving 7-year-old 
 A jury tonight convicted Edward Harold Ghostbear of Havre of committing sexual assault on a 7-year-old girl in his care.The jury deliberated for less than four hours before returning the verdict following a five-day trial in state District Court in Havre. 
Ghostbear, who was born in 1977, was accused of molesting the daughter of his girlfriend in the homeless shelter in the basement of a Havre church while he was babysitting the girl.
He was charged with sexual intercourse without consent or, in the alternative, the charge of sexual assault, both felonies.

The Havre Daily News is a daily paper and they update their web site daily.  So, why does the newspaper keep on  running this article?  If the suspect was white instead of Native American, would they still keep the news story on their web site as breaking news?
You would think the editor at the Havre Daily News was the same person as the editor of the Pahrump Valley Times.
