The Week That Student Journalists Put the Media to Shame
Briefly

The on-the-ground reporting from the WCKR journalists about the NYPD's militaristic destruction of Columbia's Gaza Solidarity Encampment-and the forcible removal of protesters who had occupied one of the school buildings-could not be further from what mainstream news channels presented to their audiences.
Instead of following WKCR's careful, rigorous lead, the corporate media repeatedly laundered NYPD and other government propaganda-and in the days that followed, news outlets continued this pattern in their reporting on other protests around the country.
CNN's Dana Bash was still suggesting that there were 'outside agitators' driving the protests.
