Trump in Chicago vs. Bernie's BLM moment vs. the broadcast rise of the Teabaggers
Compare how the crowds reacted in each situation and how it was covered.
I haven't watched any news today but I am sure that "both side HAVE to be represented" and little or no video history of Trump inciting the behavior of his followers is being offered to complete the equation.
Look at how Bernie and his staff and his crowd reacted to the two(?) BLM (?) women jumping on stage and taking over his event. Bernie was polite and no one made any threatening move towards them. I'm not in either camp (I'm a "give me a nominee and a clipboard" guy) so this isn't pro or anti Bernie. I took that as a very cringeworthy story but looking back you see the respect and dignity that Bernie et al afforded them.
Look further back to the rise of the Teabaggers. Every morning was another townhall interrupted with corporate grass movement talking points. The interrupters themselves got spots on TV to flood the story. Did Occupy get on TV? Does BLM get on TV with any consistency? The Teabaggers WANTED THEIR COUNTRY BACK apparently from a middle class guy who just crushed the establishment....of both parties. Yeah. The #1 news network actually hosted Teabagger events in 5 cities just over a year later.
Consider all that if you will and expound/expand as you like.
