It seems to me that if any upheaval is going to come from all this, it's going to be the fault of the media for giving all these protesters the facetime they want, thus creating more problems. Even Mark O Mara in his after verdict interview said he blamed the media for how badly his client has been treated the past 16 months. (for example: posting baby pictures of the victim instead of recent photos showing him as a very grown teenager).
What do you guys think? Is the media inticing these protests?

I totally agree with you.
We've both noticed it. It can't be our imagination.
It's quite blatantly obvious what the media is doing. Stirring up trouble unnecessarily.
There have been more horrible crimes out there that they never cover.
