Media inciting riots

Posted on 06/04/2020 8:39:02 PM PDT by utford

I did some searching but had trouble finding sources. After 9/11, the mass media stopped showing the WTC collapsing videos since it Might incite violence. In contrast , they show the Minneapolis video on repeat during their newscasts. Is the major media guilty of inciting riots in the current situation?

The media is desperate. They’re employing every -ist and -phobia that they can contrive.

EVERYONE knows it. Unfortunately, too many won’t acknowledge it.

They incite every thing. They have the means to do it.

“Is the major media guilty of inciting riots in the current situation?”

Is the pope a Marxist?

The democrat controlled media dilberately miss portrayed Floyd as an innocent black being forceably restrained but was not resisting arrest for passing a counterfeit $20 dollar bill . Or was a threat if not secured by not mentioning his size or that Floyd was removed from a squad car because he was acting up under the influence of drugs that led to serious abuse of efforts that were tried to get him who also had COVID 19 under control Check out

This posting has comments that reveals that both the arresting officer and Floyd knew each other and had worked together in bar security

The results of that politically induced miss reporting led to results used earlier during the post Zimmmerman trial which led to black gangs attacting non blacks found innocently traversing black neighborhoods which led to a score of murders or life changing injuries and later attacks of theft and vandalism on local businesses as well as attacks and murders of police officers during that period

The “protestors” are innocent...

inviting a coup.

Laura Ingraham had this Ben Rhodes’ quote on her program tonight.

MSNBC’s Ruhle: we’re in dangerous territory. only former officials coming out.
Rhodes: because of Monday, Rhodes would like the floodgates to open, to see not just former Admin officials, but current officials in the Trump Administration, recognise they don’t have to go along with unlawful orders from The President etc...

President Trump’s former Secretary of Defense came out with some harsh statements about the president, calling him a threat to the constitution. Former Deputy National Security Advisor Ben Rhodes joins Stephanie Ruhle to discuss if it will even matter.

If Trump refuses to leave office after losing, would we be required to hear both sides of the argument? The fact that we likely would is a sign of how broken a particular media mindset is.

It has been interesting to see how quickly they’ve jumped from COVID-19 all the time to George Floyd all the time - whatever generates viewers, and doesn’t offend their leftist sensibilities seems to win the day,

If a Dem were in the White House right now, we’d still be getting covid fear porn and Floyd would be a footnote story for the day it happened.

The protesters/looters don’t watch “newscasts”.

Blame Twitter for inciting violence.

Videos depicting violence get pulled almost immediately unless they show cops beating up civilians. Twitter is inciting violence right now with a viral video of Buffalo cops pushing an elderly man.

Let’s review:

We have a President who brought our nation back from the drain of Obama and the Dems. He helped all people, effectively blasted ISIS, brought jobs here, brought mining back, drilling back, blew off the Climate Accords....think about the Left...Stormi Daniels, Russia Collusion, Inpeachment, Ukraine, COVID-19 and now Floyd’s terrible death, magnified and organized by the Media and Soros.

Trump is not in the Uniparty, doesn’t need the money and wants what’s best for us.

God Bless Donald Trump. He restored my faith in America.

Correct - anyone remember who was president during the Ferguson induced riots? Did he get blamed?

Not everyone knows it. Only about half the country knows it.
