The Oregonian tweeted on Saturday that since it was a white male who was killed on Friday in an officer involved shooting, there was no reason to riot. In a now deleted tweet the newspaper wrote, “The man who was killed was a white male in his 30s, according to three sources with knowledge of the investigation. The Oregonian/OregonLive is identifying the man’s race in light of social unrest prompted by police shootings of black people.”
