[See NewsBusters for more.] Seeming to place the responsibility on Donald Trump, CBS This Morning on Wednesday pointedly noted that protesters in Phoenix didn’t become violent until after the President spoke. Reporting from the scene, journalist Carter Evans observed, “This is where thousands of protesters and Trump supporters were gathered before the rally. They were very vocal, but largely peaceful.” He added, “All of that changed, however, after the President spoke. And a small group of protesters ignored police orders to leave.” The journalist eventually explained, “Police used tear gas to clear the streets of largely anti-Trump protesters after the President's rally.”
