Caught shorthanded: CNN mischaracterized call to burn down Milwaukee suburbs as call for peace

Twitchy:

Now that the FBI’s routine security review of Hillary Clinton’s email setup is complete, it might be time for a nationwide audit of the government’s and media’s recording equipment.

The State Department has suffered “glitches” lately that erased portions of video from its archives, “technical issues” caused audio to drop out whenever French President Francois Hollande happened to mention “Islamist terrorism,” and Andrea Mitchell’s aside that Juanita Broaddrick had been “discredited” vanished from NBC News’ online report.

Now CNN has fallen victim to some sort of dropout that caused its reporter to miss out on a really critical portion of remarks made by Sherelle Smith, sister of Sylville Smith, whose shooting set off rioting, looting, and arson in Milwaukee.

Newsbusters’ Kristine Marsh noted that CNN, in reporting on Smith’s “condemnation” of violence, left out the bit about burning down the suburbs rather than setting fire to the local beauty supply store that housed community essentials like hair weaves.

Yeah, that whole bit about calling for peace …

It would almost be frightening if Vox hadn’t assured the public that rioting could be a tool for positive social change.

CNN the COMMUNISTS NEWS NETWORK that woman calling for burning down the suberbs needs to be arrested and tried for attmpting to instigate a riot and returned to africa one way no turns allowed and screw the UN Human Rights Commity

No wonder the leftist media is stuck twisting the truth.
Their idol, Hillary, forces it from them…..

Hillary addressed the unrest in Milwaukee, following a police shooting and killing of a 23-year-old man. “Look at what’s happening in Milwaukee right now; we’ve got urgent work to do to rebuild trust between police and communities,” she said. “And get back to the fundamental principle: Everyone should have respect for the law and be respected by the law.”

Hillary’s remarks push the narrative that this incident is just as much a problem as the actions of other, racist officers. While she did say, “Everyone should have respect for the law,” she added, “and be respected by the law.”

The best thing that Clinton could have said is nothing, leaving it for local officials to sort out. But that does not advance the goal of reducing confidence in local law enforcement so that more power can be transferred to the federal government.
