Yes, folks. Let the media spinning begin ...
In its Politics section, CNN.com laughably starts:
Hundreds of people gathered outside Arizona's Capitol building on Sunday in a largely peaceful protest against the state's tough new immigration law.
To which the folks at WSJ's Best of the Web responds:
"Largely peaceful" implies that there was some violence, although the CNN report does not reveal its nature or extent. In any case, it's quite a contrast with reports of completely peaceful tea-party protests that emphasize imagined threats of violence.

And my grass is pink, the sky is purple and MSNBC is a bastion of logic, contemporary knowledge, and wisdom.

I hope somebody is comparing video of tea parties and rioting illegals and overlapping them with MSM descriptions.
By largely peaceful, I take it that some of it wasn’t peaceful.
