Berkeley Bleeds: Broken Bones & Cracked Skulls
The saying if it bleeds, it leads used to be standard in most mainstream media news programming. However the new standard in MSM reporting of #BlackLivesMatter protests from Ferguson to Berkeley seems to be: if it burns, shatters or loots
then it leads. These narratives are highly manipulative.
According to Psychology Today: The success of fear-based news relies on presenting dramatic anecdotes in place of scientific evidence, promoting isolated events as trends, depicting categories of people as dangerous and replacing optimism with fatalistic thinking. News conglomerates who want to achieve this use media logic, by tweaking the rhythm, grammar, and presentation format of news stories to elicit the greatest impact. Often, these practices present misleading information and promote anxiety in the viewer.
