True. Media coverage of these protests has been basically a blackout. We've heard almost nothing.

C'mon. Of course they shouldn't have been arrested, but it's not some systemic suppression.

There are at least 20 cases of credentialed journalists being attacked or arrested by police in the last 48 hours. While a few of these may have been mistaken identity, many weren't.
