"In a video released by the White House earlier in the day, President Donald Trump addressed Zarutska's murder by declaring that We cannot allow a depraved criminal element of violent repeat offenders to continue spreading destruction and death throughout our country. We have to respond with force and strength. We have to be vicious, just like they are. It's the only thing they understand, he added."
"Trey, I'm sure you were listening to that White House press conference. I don't know about you, I pretty much didn't hear any questions about this young Ukrainian woman. Maybe one half question off the top. There were a whole lot more questions about Jeffrey Epstein, who's been dead for years now. Your thoughts on just the overall lack of national media interest in this case? asked Melugin."
"Yeah, I'll say it to you as bluntly as I can: she's a blue-eyed blonde, and the media doesn't give a damn. So if it's someone else killing someone else, and look, I happen to be apolitical on this. I don't want anybody killed. I don't care about race, politics, gender, I'm all for it. I see life between people of good conscience and criminals. But the media does not, replied Gowdy."
Iryna Zarutska, a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee, was murdered on a train in Charlotte. A presidential video called for forceful responses against violent repeat offenders, urging force and strength and stating that authorities must be 'vicious, just like they are.' A White House press briefing addressed the murder. A Fox correspondent said national reporters largely did not ask questions about the case and contrasted attention given to other stories. A former congressman blamed selective media coverage, asserting that the victim's appearance and prevailing narratives influenced the lack of coverage and pointing to other high-profile cases as comparisons.
