Actual Headline of AP's Toledo Riot story taken from Yahoo News

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

Sorry,but white supremacists DID NOT RIOT!They were invited in by people who were being victimized by black gangs and the neo-nazis were proven right because the police stopped their demonstration and the black gangs(caught on tape)were showing this to be so by creating an air of hatred,vandalism,theft and voilence.

White Supremacists Riot in Toledo, Ohio

Think Clinton.

Notice that there is no apostrophe in "supremacists." Therefore it is not their riot, by them. It is a riot about them. It's like when they talk about draft riots or food riots. It's not the food or the draft that is rioting. That is the subject of the riot.

Of course, you know the reason they worded it this way was to convey the false information that it was WS who were throwing rocks and attacking police.

Accurate, but a lie.

[Cboldt]

LOL - bump -

Bozos.

[Skooz]

Note how it is impossible to distinguish anything about the perps on the one photo they use:

Could be "White Supremacists," you know.

[Bear_Slayer]

Yahoos headline reads, "Anti-White Supremacists March"

Apparently they were not black rioters, they were anti-white. All the difference in the world.

[ghostrider]

I wonder if I could sue the newspaper for such an erroneous lie, if I had run in fear from the Nazis to the safety of the black group where I got mugged and vandalized.

[headsonpikes]

How dare you question the objectivity of the MSM!

You're supposed to carry over your suspension of disbelief from the cheesy network dramas to the cheesy network 'news'.

The networks would never lie to you - they hold a public trust. False but accurate - that's the new truth!

[rabair]

wow! what an f-ing disgrace. I'm about to email Michelle Malkin, etc. to get the word out. This is a scandal and must be treated as such... By the way, you left out the sub headline, the full headline at ABC is:
"White Supremacists Riot in Toledo, Ohio"
Mayor of Toledo, Ohio, Declares Emergency, Sets Curfew After Hundreds of White Supremacists Riot"

Having that included adds to the lie and makes it even more outrageous... Interestingly, the AP seems to have tried to correct it, while ABC seems to be hangin' tough... here's the link to the same article at the AP, with a different headline, and minus the sub-headline:
"Anti-white supremacist protesters riot"
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/N/NAZI_MARCH?SITE=TXCOR&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&SECTION=HOME

However you can find it still with the original headline here:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20051016/ap_on_re_us/nazi_march_20

Here's the yahoo and google news searches of "White Supremacists Riot in Toledo".

Anyway, I suggest we bombard the major bloggers with emails about this. We can make this a story and at least deal a big blow tomorrow when John Gibson and some others perhaps mention it.. But the issue will need to be pushed by us.

I didn't know there were black white supremacists.

[DTogo]

Calypso Louie can have his "million" racist black men march, and spew all the anti-white/jew/Bush venom he wants, but a few dozen racist white boys don't get their turn at free speech.

I am not suprised.

[takenoprisoner]

I just watched a press conference from toledo police officials. the coverup continues...

[Lancey Howard]

Yeah, I just went to the ABC site and it makes no sense - - the first paragraph of the story is completely at odds with the headline as well as the sub-headline. I hope it's merely incompetence.

[Reactionary]

They spewed the same lie on ABC Radio yesterday.

[TaxRelief]

Do you have a link to anything that proves AP is behind the headline? This looks like ABC is the sole culprit.

[Rodney King]

Ya know, the Nazi's got EXACTLY what they wanted. TV picture of Blacks breaking the law and rioting. What more could they have asked for? The best thing you can do when 25 Nazis march is ignore them.

Jake Blues: "I hate Illinois Nazi's"

I hate Nazis too, but I'm afraid I have to say they made their point.

I believe their stated goal was to expose gang (i.e. Black, in their opinion) violence in this particular Toledo neighborhood.

The Nazis didn't even march, but they certainly exposed the level of gang related violence, be it Black, Hispanic, White, or other.

I know, I know, there were reports of some outsiders inciting violence, but I think the outsiders were a tiny minority of the numbers of rioters we saw on TV.

Protesting Nazis doesn't include looting, setting buildings and cars on fire, or throwing stones at police and emergency vehicles. Those are criminal element activities, apparently gang related in this case (drunken Red Sox rioters excluded).

I really hate to say it, but as far as a publicity win, the Nazis chalked one up, with a big assist by the MSM.

[BIRDS]

I'm relieved to read here that others get the preposterous lies in that headline. I read the story on FOX very early today and it seems that rioting was by everyone BUT the "white supremacists" and not only that, there's more planned (by "protestors" of the protestors).

Farakhan can rant and rave about everything racist and racially motivated yet a straggly group of "white" people in Ohio can't have their few hours without being mobbed and such.

I don't support the politics of the group, they sure don't represent 'white' people, but the rioting wasn't 'white' people.

I'm wondering what the headline would have been like if they'd been honest about it.

There is a link in a side bar on the AP page that changes the headline from "White Supremecists Riot..." to "Anti-White Protesters..."
It's the same article, same picture.
