Welp:
Banner on CNN: "ANTI-HATE GROUPS DRAMATICALLY OUTNUMBER WHITE SUPREMACISTS IN DC"

Here’s a screenshot:
By “Anti-Hate Groups,” CNN is referring to the folks who said all cops are racist and beat up a journalist. pic.twitter.com/blgGoWYE4o

These are the same “anti-hate groups” that were chanting “f*ck the police”:
And clashing with the Secret Service, including some egg throwing:

And chanting about punching Nazis:

And setting off smoke bombs:

Did CNN ask why so many members of the anti-hate groups were wearing helmets?

Ah! They wore the helmets to protect themselves when they rescued a fellow member stuck in a tree:

Do better CNN:
CNN's Brian Todd mentions in passing that the antifa thugs were "a little more confrontational with the police," which apparently involved tear gas. No mention of the attacks on the media, the rockets and egg-throwing.

The media has a bias toward covering conflict, right up to the point where they don't.
