In this chapter, Cherry examines the limited, and sometimes non-existent media coverage of homicides in neighborhoods with low income and high crime rates. Cherry analyzes homicides ignored by the media in both Toronto and East St. Louis, Missouri. She includes excerpts from her interviews with the mother of a homicide victim, and a reporter from the East St. Louis community.
