Fox News host Greg Gutfeld expressed outrage at the way some media outlets cover stories of random violence being carried out against innocent people.
During "The Five" on Friday, Gutfeld said that he believed the viewing public is becoming numb to stories in which innocent people are hurt.
"These things are happening with such mundane patterns or activity that we've gotten used to it," he said. "Also, the media is not interested in [covering] it. We are doing it, but I don't think this is on MSNBC or CNN, but I don't know that because I don't watch them."
Gutfeld was referencing the story of a New York City Emergency Medical Service, Lt. Alison Russo-Elling, who was stabbed to death by a random stranger. Russo-Elling was heralded for her service during 9/11. She worked for the city for 25 years.
"It seems like the mainstream media is too interested in racism, activism, and pronouns and then when they do their stories, they just go onto Twitter to see how clever they can be."
"This woman survived 9/11 but couldn't survive a trip to the bodega," he said. "The crazy person aspect is becoming this thing with every story."
Gutfeld added that elected officials care about stories like this when their job is up.
"They don't care about people in marginal populations like the drug addicted or homeless," he added. "The people that are committing a lot of these crimes are complete cowards."
