This video from Brave New Films points out a definite media bias between White and Black protests.

Via Odinsblog:

Sometimes they don’t even call a white riot, a riot.

Waco: 170 arrested, 9 people dead, but it’s not a riot. Baltimore: no deaths, but it’s a riot chock full of thugs.

What if the media portrayed white rioters the same as black protesters? Think for yourself. Don’t let the media color your perceptions. Demand fairness in media coverage.
