Isn't "online journalist" just another word for a "web hack"? What keeps all of us FReepers from being called "online journalists"?
The Chicago 7 brought guns to the party, they knew in advance that they planned to get things up in arms.
There was an LA Times journalist who went to cover the Elian Gonzales story in Miami (she later went inside the Church Of The Nativity standoff). While at a protest in Miami, she started throwing rocks at the police. This was an attempt to start a riot (and fabricate journalism).
The Republican observers did not like how the counting was being done behind closed doors (where ballots could be altered).
Here's the schedule (although you may want to verify latest data at their website)

Although the highly partisan film accused Republicans of "stealing" the election, the directors also said the Gore campaign should have been more concerned with counting every vote, instead of merely finding the necessary votes to win the election.
I can personally affirm this. My black students said it repeatedly when the election fiasco was still undecided. I even asked them if they were enslaved when his father, GHWB #41, was president... and they said YES!
NEVER underestimate the power of emotional control over child-like minds.
