Michael Brown Protesters Show Up At CNN’s Atlanta Headquarters
Daily Caller ^ | 8/19/2014 | Chuck Ross

Hundreds of protesters gathered in the rain outside of CNN headquarters in Atlanta Monday to voice their outrage over the network’s coverage of the Michael Brown shooting.

According to CNN contributor Hilary Rosen, the angry crowd was frustrated over the network’s “smearing” of Brown, who was fatally shot by Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson on August 9.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, protesters gathered at the network’s headquarters, the CNN Center, located in Atlanta.

With chants of “no justice, no peace,” the protesters marched a mile to the National Center for Civil and Human Rights.

It is unclear why the protesters showed up to CNN headquarters. The demonstration was organized using the Twitter hashtag #ItsBiggerThanYou.

CNN has been almost promoting the rioting and they aren't satisfied?

I must be watching a different CNN, because they have basically condemned the police officer, found him guilty etc.

Yes they give a little bit of the other side but it`s not heart felt at all.

There was a time people living in this country didn’t have time for this kind of bull****. Everybody had to work for a living and had jobs. These “protestors” are the morons without jobs who are too stupid to write poetry or learn to play the guitar.

With a little bit of luck the protester / thugs will take over CNN and start doing their own broadcasting.... It could be BETCNN

One can hope that the rioters storm and trash CNN facilities. I love it when chickens come home to roost for liberals.

Apparently CNN isn’t liberal enough for these protesters. They want CNN to enflame a lynch mob mentality. They want CNN to report that America is hopelessly racist or some such drivel.

This mob is likely living off of the system that they claim is oppressing them. They have all day, every day to protest because the makers are paying for them and they just want more.

Here about 90m north of Atlanta I witnessed an exchange of the Big Mike ‘salute’ between two black employees at Wendy’s. The stuck both arms up in the air when greeting.

CNN morons must have thought they’d be exempted from the “outrage”.
