Fox News Runs Riot Video Footage To Portray Black Lives Matters' Meeting With Obama
In typical Roger Ailes fashion, Fox News used video images that told an entirely different story than the one their voice-over was telling. Like they did to try and smear president Obama's election day when they promoted a bogus new Black Panthers video to make it appear that voters were being intimidated to vote for Obama, this morning a F&F's segment discussed President Obama's meeting with the Black Lives Matters group and ran video of blacks rioting in the streets to negatively portray the group to Fox News viewers.
Fox & Friends decided to present a slightly different picture, opening up the segment with intentionally chosen footage of riots in the African American community. Heather Childers said in the clip, “The violent riots several years ago in Ferguson and Baltimore now drawing praise from President Obama — praise,” she emphasized.
