Local TV news: "An Occupy demonstration turns violent when police fire tear gas into the crowd"

[Bozita]

It was a teaser at www.wdiv.com in Detroit, an NBC affiliate.

When they did the story after the break, they said demonstrators threw bottles at the cops.

I smell bullshit.

6. I wonder if they realized how they presented it--the crowd wasn't violent UNTIL the cops fired the

tear gas.
