In a spectacle that should send shockwaves through anyone concerned with civil liberties, more than 100 students were injured during a police crackdown on protestors marching on parliament. Yet, instead of focusing on the police aggression, mainstream outlets like CNN pivot to framing this protest as a “disruption,” downplaying the severity of injuries. It’s as if they’re hell-bent on sugarcoating state violence while pushing their own narratives.

Meanwhile, while Fox News might give some attention to the violence, they can’t resist spinning it to fit their own agenda. Expect sensationalist headlines focusing solely on “chaos” without contextualizing it within the broader narrative of government oppression. The reality is a shocking dichotomy—students standing for their rights, versus an iron fist in the guise of law and order. Fox has a distinct knack for conflating legitimate protests with “antifa” boogeymen, diluting the genuine grievances of these demonstrators.

And where’s the outrage from other networks like MSNBC or ABC? Silent, as they sidestep the real issue: the blatant assault on democracy. Instead, they keep harping on political theater and the latest Twitter feud instead of covering the very real impact of government action. Why? Because narratives matter more than truth in their playbook.

This isn’t about political bias; it’s about a media landscape that’s utterly failing to hold power accountable. Are we truly willing to accept this version of reality where police brutality is glossed over and protestors are villainized? Absolutely not. It’s time to demand the truth and stop letting corporate media dictate the narrative.
