I watched Don Lemon get pushed by a cop yesterday for being where the cops had told him to be.
The cops are making themselves look really bad. I'm sure somehow that's the media's fault.
Not exactly but the cops are contending with a lot of "media" that is going their work with cell phones and pocket cameras. It's pretty difficult to pick them out from a casual observer if they're in the thick of things.
-edit-
I want to expand on this a little.
Along with the legitimate protesters in Ferguson there are, as we know, some folks who WANT there to be violence. Some of these folks, under the guise of "media" are instigating trouble just so that they can film it. That's a real problem for both the cops and the people who just want to have their voice heard because those antics really can't be separated from the rest of the protest.
