Violence breaks out in SF, setting social media outlets aflame with activity
- wccrawford 16y agoIt seems to me the media outlets weren't reporting this because they were trying to be responsible and not add more people to the riots. They probably have standard practices that they don't report things like riots until after they are done for that reason. But people are increasingly getting their news from random people on the internet, so that tactic doesn't have the effect it used to. It saddens me that people think riots are a good thing, and that they should proudly claim to be in one.
- jameskilton 16y agoAye, big media isn't reporting it because it isn't news. And the article mentions the BBC? Hah, they have no IDEA what goes on in Europe do they? What happened in SF is but a blip compared to the street parties that happen after major sporting events in other countries. Drunk people being stupid. Nothing to see here.
