Edit: Some people pointed out that “mass looting” is more or less propaganda. I edited the title to be accurate.

Newsweek isn’t accurate, in general. I thought it was newsworthy that there was a riot after the game, but maybe I should not be feeding into a right-wing mythology about “lawless left-wing cities,” which this story pretty definitely is doing.

    I think you are both right. I edited the title away from Newsweek’s misleading title, and added a note adding some context.

    I’m not sure I should have posted this, to be honest, for that exact reason.

      Props to you for contributing content to the site! That’s more than I normally do. Thanks for adding recognition that this story might’ve been written with bias based on the source. You get my kudos for the day, hopefully you have a great end of October Day
