What an excellent analysis. I will add my concerns about not just the news media but also channels like Lifetime and We that invest an inordinate amount of money and time to stories about women being threatened, murdered, stalked etc. This creates a mindset of fear that I believe undermine's all women's empowerment. The powerful questions you ask really make me think about why we are so obsessed with violence, murder, guns and policing in the first place. Is our storytelling designed to control all but white men through fear and anxiety so that we never question the true power in the country?
