Entrenched Media Strikes Again

From GOP Bloggers comes this story: Media Bias is Insidious

The UK Guardian has the AP lead:

JERUSALEM (AP) – Israeli police stormed a disputed Jerusalem holy site Monday, hurling stun grenades to disperse hundreds of Palestinian worshippers who were throwing stones at police and Jewish visitors.

GOP Bloggers suggests that the lead could be rewritten:

JERUSALEM — Hundreds of Palestinian worshippers hurled stones at Jewish visitors to a holy site Monday, prompting Israeli police to intervene and employ stun grenades.

I agree with this. But, in the entrenched media, Palestinian misbehavior is not misbehavior and Israeli intervention is misbehavior. Somehow, even though the Palestinians were the instigators of violence, it is the fault of the those who were the real victims.
