the false media meme

And that is exactly what it is, a false media meme. Cruz placed the responsibility on the violence squarely on the protesters.

And then tonight, as violence broke out, the rally was canceled all together. Now, the responsibility for that lies with protesters who took violence into their own hands.

The false theme is that Cruz didn't blame the protesters. But since the lie has been repeated enough times, people believe it...At this point, they must want to believe it. Not sure what purpose it serves, but they believe it.

I would love to sit on FR all day and correct this over and over and over and over. But I have to get some work done.

And this is why you have no credibility. Because RIGHT after this, without a break, Cruz clearly went on to do the opposite and blame Trump for everything. His statement blaming Trump was three times as long as this short "token" statement. We're not idiots. In the live video, without cutting out the most relevant part which you did, he was doing nothing but blaming trump.

You need to start learning from your mistakes. Your defense of Cruz is utter nonsense.
