The media want to change the DEFINITION of RIOT to accommodate BLM and Antifa rioting.

The Associated Press New ‘Guidance’ On Riots Are Frightening & Make Orwell A Prophet  "The AP’s stylebook is like a bible/rule book for journalists to help them frame stories. Earlier this week they released their “guidance” on how to cover riots and revolutions. "In the AP’s infinite wisdom they would prefer the journalist to focus on the emotional condition of those protesting rather than the violence that would “stigmatize” the group" . . .

"The AP Stylebook announced a new change that is in keeping with the national press/propaganda networks who are conspiring to hide, cover for, support financially, and benefit from the deadly and destructive anti-American hate riots put on by domestic terror groups Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

"The Stylebook tweeted their intent out loud this week because the media believe, maybe correctly, that they control everything and are accountable to no one.

"Just like every time the trial balloon goes up, they pretend it’s a suggestion. That’s how the left always does things. First they suggest, then they insist, then they come to a restaurant while you’re eating and demand you raise your fist in solidarity or face punishment." . . .

New guidance on AP Stylebook Online

1. Use care in deciding which term best applies: A riot is a wild or violent disturbance of the peace involving a group of people. The term riot suggests uncontrolled chaos and pandemonium. (1/5)

2.  Focusing on rioting and property destruction rather than underlying grievance has been used in the past to stigmatize broad swaths of people protesting against lynching, police brutality or for racial justice, going back to the urban uprisings of the 1960s. (2/5)

3.  Unrest is a vaguer, milder and less emotional term for a condition of angry discontent and protest verging on revolt. (3/5)
