01-07-21 Media hypocrisy on the DC protestors vs the BLM protestors

Season 3, Episode 1

Ray Hanania on Politics.

Award winning veteran political columnist and former Chicago City Hall Reporter Ray Hanania analysis the real problem with the DC Protests, the hypocrisy of the mainstream American news media. Hanania argues that the media treated the singled day of protests by pro-Trump activists in Washington D.C. differently from the two month long protests of Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists. Members of both groups engaged in violence but the media blanket stereotyped the DC protestors as all being "terrorists and rioters" to use the words of media hypocrite Anderson Cooper while separating the BLM Protestors into legitimate protests and a small group of aberrant protestors who turned to violence. They turned the one-day Washington DC protest into a riot because some -- not all -- engaged in violence. But in the case of BLM protests that followed the wrongful killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis that lasted more than two months, the separated the violence from the protests, and minimized the violence. The media did that because of politics. The biased media applied their political sense to both issues and emphasized the BLM protests in a positive way and emphasized the DC protests in a negative way. The hypocritical media made this about Trump versus Biden but the reality is it also involves their own partisan and unethical lack of journalism professionalism.
