News Bias Reporting Police Incidents.

In a bid to compete with the Internet, main-stream media (MSM) reports what they see in posted YouTube videos without reporting the facts of the events that lead up to the point where someone starts recording the police apprehending a suspect.

While the MSM may later report the full facts of the case in the format of boring courtroom testimony, the public are still only left with the part of the impression that police just show up for no apparent reason and cause trouble.

What is the mission of news organizations which report incidents involving police showing up at block parties, pool parties, taking down someone selling cigarettes outside a bodega, or beating someone on the Interstate?

What is the mission of news organizations which focus reporting police incidents involving African Americans? Do they intentionally reinforce psychological segregation?
