Newspaper Uses Racial Slur, Will Anyone Be Fired?

Of course the slur was against a white man who is a white supremacist.
From he Sacramento Bee: Tattoos crept above the collar of Charles Francis Gaskins' black-and-white shirt with the big, bold letters on the back that read "COURT."
Marked in blue ink across his throat were the numerals "23". The number helped explain why Gaskins was about to get sentenced Friday to life in prison, on his admission of murder, by Sacramento Superior Court Judge Sharon A. Lueras.
In the prison culture, authorities say, the 23rd letter in the alphabet, W, is known as the first letter for the correctional system's racial designation of "white."
According to his probation report, Gaskins was a member of the longtime white supremacist prison group called the "Peckerwoods."As a Peckerwood, Gaskins was obligated to attack anybody within his ethnicity with a history of child molestation. In Gaskins' case, he was on parole four years ago and living with his wife in the house she owned on Whitney Avenue in Carmichael when an old acquaintance from the Deuel Vocational Institution near Tracy, Neil Lee Hayes, got out of prison. Looking for a place to live, Hayes moved in with Gaskins, now 48, and his wife, Sandra Sheaves, 43.  http://www.sacbee.com/2013/05/04/5394206/life-in-prison-for-capital-area.htmlSo, if a black gang called themselves the "Niggers" would the Sac. Bee use the word "nigger"?If a Mexican gang used the word "Wetback", would the Sac bee use that in their article?But because it was a white guy, who is not a nice guy, they decided to racial slur in naming the name of the gang this bozo belonged to.
