Part of the problem is we're watching self appointed instant photojournalists with their phone cameras who then go back home and edit them in whatever way to make their agenda. It happens all the time.
Extensively done with police vids where the media and bloggers show the same 27 seconds a thousand times and no one sees the build up or what happened 5 minutes before.
It's easy with instant phone vids and a almost free editing software, some software is a free app to create specific slanted sound and vid bites. One can even edit on the fly, include tons of stuff and effects while walking down the street. And here's something else you may not have thought about. ALL the people with their little blog sites are ALL making lots of money on this horrible year and all this violence. Hundreds of these people retweeting and showing violence have never hit the street. It's great that we get instant media coverage. Not so great when it can get changed, dragged out a hundred times, misinformation utilized and then profited by hundreds of hypocrites. So many of these regurgers don't even know whats going on and don't care. Just click my uboob channel or subscribe......
People need to educate themselves about what kind of media is being manipulated and how freaking easy it is to do. It's called propaganda, no matter what the subject is. People need to think about what put that phone jockey in that space and in peoples faces. No one can even wear professional camera ID out of fear they'll get their ass kicked.
Are we seeing the whole story or just vid bites? I love the internet and also hate what it's become. A massive meme generator for the growing 20 second attention span humanity.
