CNN Refers To Hatebreed As "White Power" Band
It was recently revealed that the alleged Wisconsin shooter, who reportedly wounded and killed several people at a Sikh temple, was a member of white supremacist band End Apathy. Since then CNN has posted an opinion piece about white power bands written by Lonnie Nasatir, who is the director of the Anti-Defamation League's Upper Midwest Region.
In the article Hatebreed was included in a list of white power bands, which is a charge the group denies. CNN apparently realized the error or was contacted by people upset about the claim, as Hatebreed's name has now been removed from the list and the bottom of the article includes the following update:
A previous version of this commentary incorrectly included the band Hatebreed in a list of white power bands. Hatebreed is a self-described "hardcore metal" band. CNN regrets the error.
The retraction came after Hatebreed posted the following message on Twitter:
"Again @CNN loses all respect. First they ignore the #FREERANDYBLYTHE story now they slander us. We demand a retraction & an apology. #hacks"

Alleged Shooter Member Of Metal Band
NBC News is reporting that Wade Michael Page, the alleged gunman who is believed to have shot and killed at least six people at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin this weekend, was also apparently the front man for a white supremacist punk rock/metal band called End Apathy.
End Apathy's MySpace music page is currently still active and still has several songs for streaming with titles like "Self Destruct," "Submission," and "Useful Idiots." The band's bio reads that "End Apathy began in 2005 with roots in old school hardcore punk and metal influences. The music is a sad commentary on our sick society and the problems that prevent true progress."
Wade was reportedly discharged from the Army in 1998, and no clear motive for his alleged shooting has been announced at this time. According to reports, Page himself was shot dead by a police officer at the scene of the crime.
An interview Deadline Live conducted with Wade Page from 2010 is also still available online at this location.
