What some of us are saying, is that the BBC will never give out the ethnicity of a suspected killer,,,,,when it's black.
It's always 'a man' killed xyz. They've given up trying to hide their bias lately. Hours, sometimes days after every other news organisation in the world has, rightly, described Islamist atrocities as such, the BBC will still be saying 'men' did this or even better 'men, possibly right-wing extremists' did that. Still, hard to get accurate journalism for a mere £4billion per year.

The Daily Mail headline of the same news story....
// The SMIRKING 'shooter': Race-hate 'gunman who killed nine at black US church' glares at cameras as he's led away in chains //
The fact is, this was a crime motivated by racial intolerance, and both the Daily Mail and BBC reflect that in their choice of words to describe the incident.

Indeed so. When a sectarian murder occurred in N Ireland, was it so ridiculous to announce: "loyalist gunman shoots Catholics" or vice versa?
Similarly here: the headline was thus because everyone could plainly see and hear that it was a race hate crime. Therefore the skin colour of those involved was relevant, as it plainly was to the killer.
I would challenge you to come up with a similar headline where that was not, in fact, the case.

Of course this crime is a racist attack !
It was obvious yesterday, but some people on here refused to acknowledge the fact, instead desperately clinging on to their own prejudices. The BBC just got in the way of their spluttering nonsense.
The BBC could say that day is day, and night is night, and the usual suspects would still insist that they have a left-wing bias !

You don't get it, do you. 'Of course this crime is a racist attack ! It was obvious yesterday'
It very likely is, but you don't know now for sure. And the BBC certainly didn't have a clue when it made the headline the OP's talking about.
I quite agree that when a white man attacks black people it ought to be part of the story, why not. But it shouldn't be a state secret when the boot is on the other foot.
