Don’t Laugh—You’re Next

During the L.A. riots, big-media reporters took bias a stage further. Instead of describing what they saw— looting, attacks on passers-by, burning-out of Koreans (called “ethnic cleansing” when it occurs in Bosnia)— they reported a liberal analysis of these events. A rioter hitting a passerby—rage at the neglect of the cities. A policeman hitting a rioter—police brutality, revealing racism. A rioter hitting a policeman—insurrection!
