A. BARTON HINKLE: Riot Act: The media demonizes the Tea Party while making excuses for the British rioters. “So far, none of those who called peaceful Tea Party activists terrorists have flung the same accusation at the British rioters who have inflicted genuine terror. Interesting.”

Well, that sort of blatant dishonesty about rioting is nothing new: “I am on the streets getting attacked. Someone next to me just got hit. I am writing memos and what comes out in the paper? ‘Hasidim and blacks clashed’? That’s not what is happening here. Jews are being attacked! You’ve got this story all wrong. All wrong.” Remember, it’s all about the narrative.
