Mainstream media shows white man's bias

Contra Bing, St. Augustine, Fla., is NOT the oldest city in the U.S. No, not even the oldest continually inhabited one.

That's either Acoma's Sky City Pueblo in New Mexico, or Moenkopi, a Hopi pueblo in Arizona.

I refused to post a comment here from a person ignorant enough to think that the Spanish (not mestizos in Mexico, but Spanish) aren't white people.

Founder Pedro Mendendez de Aviles looks awfully white to me, per his pic on Wikipedia's page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Augustine,_Florida

Said person claims a three-sentence blog post "reeks of racism."

Nope. Bing does, and, from the degree I can decipher the comment I won't post, the would-be commenter does, too.
