From last night:
"If you think that French media are downplaying the extent of the actual violence and damage, you are right. Quite a bit of hard news is not being reported both by design and by the circumstances on the ground. State TV has already decided to stop repeating the number of cars burned every day and film crews (particularly white French film crews) are being chased from the suburbs after having their vehicles and equipment torched. The only journalists currently operating freely and without armed escort are from Algerian newspapers (El Watan has been cited as an example)."

Thanks!
I read on another FR blog that they are torching "white" cars and bypassing "black" ones, especially those sporting bumperstickers with quotes from the Koran or a picture of Africa.
Another interesting comment on that blog is that quite a few of the Muslim kids doing the torching are well dressed (hey, it's France, land of haute couture and what "French" reporters would immediately notice), the latest in footwear fashion and carry expensive cellphones. According to the MSM, aren't these kids from "oppressed" neighborhoods, jobless and living on limitted incomes?!
