After hearing that he should leave, Geraldo should have asked "Or what?"
TheGrounded
I agree that the "white media" comment was in poor taste but Jesus Fucking Christ's Hairy Holy Balls Imgur, this is absurd. This man makes 1

if he stopped waving his hands all up in Geraldos face then maybe he wouldn't be so intimidated.

No the point of the news is to bring attention to the issues surrounding you. Not to be entertainment that's just scrabbling for views.
MediumPlatypi
Which is exactly why the 24 hour news cycle is so harmful; it has turned news into entertainment.

I'm a Fox News fan but I absolutely agree that not just Fox, but all media is making this look solely like a black riot and not a protest

I know he said "white media" but I think he was mostly just angry at how Fox was reporting.

Still no reason to riot and destroy your own home.
technodoki
That was a small percentage of the black community. I assume this guy was not a part of it
ArcaneConjecture
The ones who were destructive don't own any homes. Their names are not on any title deeds.

If the media paid as much attention to the protests the previous 6 days there may well have no looting Monday.

Yes, it is the media's fault locals decided to loot the walgreens.

Was freddie gray not a criminal with 2 warrants? Why riot over a criminal?

For the same reason some celebrated when cops were killed. It's extremism on both sides and it's wrong.

*sigh* Because this is supposed to be a civilized nation with due process and things like that.
senshu
And at the time the riots and protests started, none of that had been completed. You have to let fucking due process work first.

Tell that to the dead guy...?
MoonFaceinc
1) Because the rule of law is a pillar of any democracy Criminals do not deserve death.
MoonFaceinc
2)Because it highlights the problem of a system that frequently allows white authority figures to walk away from the murder of black youth
MoonFaceinc
3)Because white collar criminals are treated with the respect and dignity not afforded to poor youth
MoonFaceinc
I could go on...
bluesuits
So then why don't people riot at all prison killings or other police murders? Making it race related is stupid.
MoonFaceinc
Because this is about a system that legitimises the state killing of young black men by failing to hold those responsible to account.
bluesuits
Except white people have been killed and the officers walk free, the killing of black people and free cops are not mutually exclusive.
theonewiththematrix
God I love his line about not being intimidated just because a black person raised their voice
Legendariel
I wouldn't be intimidated by a raised voice, but he's got some crazy eyes and wild gesturing to go with it. That's kinda scary from anyone.

Yeah, then he demands they leave until they meet his demands. The media can go where they please, just as anyone can. he has no say in it.

I'd be slightly intimidated by a lot of people raising their voice. Except for this guy
dogsi
A dozen people died from the riots? You don't need to be intimidated because they are black but you should realize they were just violent.
greatbrono7
But in this case it is an intimidating situation (being surrounded by angry people). Also I find his movement + proximity more intimidating
jeffreybaratheon
It's almost like white people are programmed to be scared of black people. Fucked up how our society works.

That is exactly what he is talking about: the programming occurs nightly with news that doesn't seek to inform.

I'm not offended that your name takes after a fictional twat of a monarch, but that you misspelled his name. Was Joffrey taken or what?

To be fair, I'm intimated when ANYONE raises his/her voice.

Really, if I was Geraldo I'd be scared. Not because of race. Because you're in the middle of an angry crowd that wants you gone.

You're right. Out of everything wrong with this situation, the biggest issue is that a black man characterized the media as white.

Yeah, MersaultX probably didn't intend it that way (at least not consciously) but people should be more aware of how problematic it is to...

describe black people as eloquent or articulate. People think theyre giving a compliment but really it's condescending and speaks of racism.

You decide. But you don't make decisions to drive up ratings. Riots > crippling poverty reports decisions are driven by ratings.
