As Twitchy readers know, CNN has been pitching Antifa riots as ‘peaceful’ once again, but now ABC News is getting in on the act. Their own tweet about the ‘peaceful protest’ features a burning police car.
The actual news story is that protesters, who were anything but peaceful, were attacking a police building and burned a police car, but the media insists on spinning these events as peaceful.

How many times did you hear January 6th reported as a ‘peaceful protest’ that turned violent?
Sure, that’s what happened, but it wouldn’t have been a news story if not for the group of people who decided to riot and break the law.
The media never ran cover for them as ‘peaceful’ protesters who turned violent, and they shouldn’t be doing the same for left wing lawbreakers who actually planned on doing violence.
What do you mean “turned violent”? They promised in advance a night of violence. Can you all tell the truth about anything? https://t.co/NwEeXF7de5

No, they cannot. ABC News and other media outlets fabricated the ‘peaceful protest’ part of this narrative.
Pro-tip for you partisan baboons, if something is on fire it’s not a peaceful protest.

This is not hard, right? Also, baboons are the worst!

Points awarded for appropriate meme usage.
Here we go with the mostly peaceful protest bs again. Why are you so keen to defend Antifa, @ABC? They are anything but peaceful. Always.

President Biden told us Antifa is just an idea … an idea that assaults the police and burns stuff, apparently.
Fact Check: False. It was never a "peaceful protest."

These people showed up to do exactly this.
Weird. ANTIFA brought the fire bombs to the protest when it started, but it started as a peaceful protest?
You guys read your headlines before posting?
Can’t imagine why trust for you is at an all time low. Total mystery.

Happens all the time. ‘Get in the car, kids! We’re heading to the church potluck. Make sure you have your improvised explosives, pepper spray, and fuel to set the pastor’s car on fire … just in case things turn violent.’

ABC News out here showing reruns. LOL.
That car is on fire. Lol.

That car is burning peacefully. They probably made s’mores later.
This is why no one, in the history of ever, should take you seriously.

Bingo. The left wing media is not interested in informing. Their goal is manipulation.
Everyone is laughing at you.

*Pre-planned and outside funded domestic terrorism protesting the killing of a fellow terrorist who had attempted to murder a Georgia State Trooper.

Now that’s an accurate headline.
The American media is a threat to national security and should be treated as such. https://t.co/PnPwGLMtRR

The term ‘Enemy of the People’ comes to mind.
The peaceful protestors peacefully set peace fire to a police vehicle as a sign of peace. https://t.co/pQBKrSxGte

They have no shame. Peace out, ya’ll.
