A classic example of how the media LIES to make minorities and the poor look like criminals

In fact, this clip does it to BOTH of the people who are interviewed. Be sure to watch the whole thing.




The lie about the young boy is obvious. And it's obvious that the reporter wanted a "disturbing" story to sell, even if he had to invent one.


But what also bugs me is his reaction to the woman who says she intends to buy a gun to defend her home. Why is that scary? Are those people not supposed to have home defense?
