Answer:

D. They hoped to conceal facts that would reveal the true motivations

behind the race riot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of the Healines went along the lines of showing white casualties, rather then actually explaining what went on there, So headlines which thwarted the attention away from what happened were used such as showing white casualties, or pushing th eblame onto others.
