CORPORATE MEDIA DISTORTIONS OF POLICE BRUTALITY

Headlines of news about last night's brutality in downtown Los Angeles are either non-existant or completely distorted. If you see any more distorted headlines and news, please add to comments.

The corporate media, despite reports by the ACLU and thousands of eyewitnesses, demonize protestors.

CNN's HEADLINE:
Protesters pelt police with bricks, and bottles at Democratic convention

ABC NEWS HEADLINE:
Protesters Rage
Hundreds Clash with Police Outside Convention

Hmm. Judging from the IMC's coverage, it seems as though there's some major holes in the corporate media spin.
