I largely agree, though major rioting in a US city is going to make the news. As to the incident in question, we don't have all of the facts yet.
But this is why we shed no tears when the media complains about being limited or hindered in free speech by the Obama administration. They've in part brought it upon themselves.
Making a story where there isnt one. The media is admitting they knew about this store robbery and kept it to themselves. But they pushed thst it was a racist shooting. Like this is the only police shooting to happen in years. Its more common then they let on. This one was covered so heavy because of its timing and the need to deflect obamas base from him recommiting to iraq ground troops.

The rioting never would have happened if the media didnt fan the flames. This is not the first cop shooting a black person case. Not everyone is a riot. The riots are part of the deflection.
Please-I think bringing the international spotlight on the unnecessary militarization of our local police forces was a vital story.
You'd rather have the media reporting on a politician trashing another politician? Really?
The Police embarrased themselves and further detached Americans from the police-state, military-industrial complex and War on "Drugs" that make most of it possible.
St. Louis Major Ronnie Robinson told The Huffington Post that his team aimed to "bring peace and tranquility to this community."
"Intervention works," Robinson said. "You just can't have a heavy hand all the time. You have to be professional enough to be able to identify when you need to meet force with force. ... You've got to be able to communicate."
Blame it on Obama and the OP will be happy. Of course it is probably the biggest story within our borders, yet things outside should trump what goes on here, and certainly the fact anything happens while the Pres is on vacation is a huge story the media is missing. How could they , doing their job, when they could just blame Obama.
Its a false flag about a so called innocent unarmed black youth getting shot by a white cop!
Media success in turning the story to protect Obama.
I wonder how long they can stretch thise story while they look for the next deversion story.
I don't care about anything on that list.
1.)Thank god we didn't go into Syria and show "leadership" like some flag waving warmongers wanted. We would be deep in that ISIS mess if not helping them.
Iraq needs to run their own country. If they want to kill each other so be it.
2.)I can't care less about Ukraine and Russia not our concern.
3.)Hillary isn't running. She's going to be too old to deal with a conservative congress.
So the OP thinks rioting in the US and the police using excessive force shouldn't be making the news?
Did the story make the riot or the riot make the story? Think about that.
