Here’s a quiz for you folks in the media: What happens if you’re out doing “man on the street” interviews but none of the men on the street fit your “narrative”?
If you’re CNN, you stop interviewing them.
It has been remarkable to watch the last few days as America’s self-styled “most trusted news network” has sent out teams of reporters to various areas of Ferguson, Mo., ostensibly to cover the protests there. While their cameramen are watching cars on fire and stores being looted, the reporters ramble on about how “most people here” are “peaceful protesters.” Modal Trigger
Where are these peaceful protesters? The reporters can’t seem to find any. Instead, they turn to outside experts and some carefully vetted religious leaders to talk about “the real message” of the protests. Modal Trigger
On Tuesday night, CNN correspondent Jason Carroll was reporting, “Most of the protesting we saw in front of the Ferguson Police Department tonight was peaceful.” Then as he started trying to explain the fires burning behind him, he was approached by three of the protesters, who proceeded to get in his face and yell at him because he was promoting a “certain narrative” — the police narrative. “You don’t understand!” one screamed.

do I really have to say it???
Like all leftists, CNN lives in a world built completely of lies.
heh heh heh...
“Hands down, Brown is in the ground.”
ROFL!
Unfortunately for Brown, it was reported that his parents are living large while they still haven’t paid for him to have a headstone.
Now that they have forced the Promise Keepers off the roofs, it is clear the authorities don’t care about the destruction of private property, arson or looting.
I guess they threatened to arrest people protecting property..so that is our future. Rioters running riot with no police to stop them.
Why does anybody watch this piece of communists channel CNN.
Wasn’t that the Oath Keepers? I think that the Promise Keepers are some ecumenical movement for men.
ROTFLMAO!
None of the rioters got shot by people trying to protect themselves or their property so that means they were “peaceful” riots.
CNN is lying
No other qualifying statements are necessary. It is readily apparent to those with a brain.
100%
Even the political cartoons are PC. Why not a white news person and a black looter instead of the other way around ? Because it would be the truth and they can’t handle the truth
