Atrocities in Baltimore started minutes after the police state curfew went into effect in Baltimore Saturday night. However, the media coverage of the violent actions varies depending on what company is telling the story.
For example, when CNN covered the arrest of a black man, the video report began with the footage of a semi-conscious man laying on the ground with a reporter speculating on the possibility of the man faking his unconsciousness.
The reporter then describes how bottles were being thrown at police and that this arrest could be related.
The second video of the same arrest comes from Russia Today. The no comment video depicts the actual story more accurately.
