Slate Writer Apologizes for Asserting Austin Bomber Was White Supremacist

National Review


"Jamelle Bouie, the chief political correspondent for Slate, suggested in a Monday tweet that the individual responsible for the scourge of bombings in Austin, Texas was a “white supremacist,” hours after two white men were injured in one of the explosions.
Emboldened white supremacists are murdering people, attempting to murder people and radicalizing folks who also murder people and it is staggering that it is barely a national story. https://twitter.com/karenattiah/status/975599946878595072 
"The alleged bomber, 23-year-old Mark Anthony Conditt, blew himself up Wednesday morning as police closed in on his vehicle. He is thought to have been responsible for five bombings in or near Austin."
