Watts burning . Sentiments summed up by an indignant man confronting her roll dough rivera of fox news. It became a youtube sensation. I want you and fox news to get out of Baltimore City because youre not here reporting about the boarded up homes and the Homeless People under. Lk. Youre not reporting on the poverty levels. Three years ago on the 300 man march, you werent here. But youre here for the black riots that happen. Of course it was another viral video of freddie gray that ignited the outrage and ended up with murder charge being filed friday. And the clip raises important questions about the medias approach.
