That's what it takes to be a "reporter" today, Gary and Phil? You just repeat what you read on twaddle? And it takes two of you?
Well, with some reluctance I will come to their defense. It is possible their editor "cleaned up the article" out of fear of having their offices bombed.
This is what was available in the article for careful readers:
"They did not say who was responsible. At one point, officers fired what appeared to be pepper ball rounds into the anti-fascist crowd during a confrontation."
the truth was in the next sentence:
“At one point, officers fired what appeared to be pepper ball rounds into the anti-fascist crowd during a confrontation.”
just from my limited youtube observations over the summer, I’d say pepper balling is typically directed to that part of the crowd doing the throwing of glass bottles, rocks and eggs at officers. I’d hope at that one point, the Trumpsters had zipped off to an alternate location.
There has been a significant increase in news articles both written and TV news citing Twatter and Fakebook responses to news stories.
Just another rung down into complete Idiocracy.
