SHAME ON CNN-Peace Activists Shown As Anarchists-Despicable Excuse For Journalism

"Local peace activists held a meeting yesterday to discuss the FBI raids. The meeting was video recorded (because, unlike our government, the activists are transparent), and posted online by Indymedia.

If you look at that video, http://tc.indymedia.org/videos/2010/sep/dont-f-our-activists-mobilizing-against-fbi-raids-walker-church-emergency-community- you will see ordinary people, in ordinary clothes, many of them parents and grandparents, speaking rationally but passionately about the Constitutional right of citizens to protest government policies.

Now, look at the image CNN provides on its website here.

The image shows a group of anarchists, wearing the typical black garb and face masks, and gas masks draped around their necks. CNN's caption reads: "A coalition of groups that protested at the GOP convention in Minneapolis-St. Paul in 2008 called Friday's raids 'harassment.'"

I hope everyone reading will complain to CNN about this despicable excuse for journalism and bring it to the attention of others through twitter, email, blogs, etc." CNN CONTACT LIST HERE (thanks to Jonathan for work done on list)

It really is getting so that the only reliable news shows are Stewart and Colbert.

at least they aren't wearing three piece business suits. Those are the one we need to worry about. Those are the hoodlums causing all the violence.

The very last thing CNN or any other major media outlet wants to do is make people who protest the High Church of Redemptive Violence look mainstream in any way. Questioning our national religion is the sole province of the crazies and the young generation slackers.

when Fox showed a clip of Obama saying "taxes will go up next year"

and then didn't show the rest of the clip, where he said "Under Bush's tax cuts, taxes will go up next year"

nothing new there. American media whores as usual for the right wing.

it's tiresome.
