people are calling an assault on journalism i want to bring in georgetown university professor chris chambers chris as always great to have you so we might expect to see this kind of activity you now in egypt for example or in syria but not necessarily in ferguson missouri do you think what happened could have been a misunderstanding or is it clear that this really is an assault on journalism i can't see how it could be a misunderstanding first of all this is oppression one hundred one if you want to control the narrative you control first of all the people the protesters on the ground and then you control the people who are recording what the protesters on the ground are doing just as you were you know you control say eyewitnesses who might have camera phones etc etc who were there at the point of contact between the officer and young mr brown who was apparently shot with his hands up according to all the witnesses. and they've seized camera phones to that effect so you want to control the information or to control the narrative this is a good way to do it and what we've seen here are journa

chambers road. >> if i'm not mistaken, that was where dell wood market is from reports from chris hayes. that was a fire started inside. i'm not sure if it was deliberate or somebody broke in. do you have any information on that. >> several people were throwing glass bottles through the window. they were not looting. it was pure vandalism. that was right after i saw. the name fizzled out before they were able to throw it on to the police area, but they were still too far away for it to do any damage. it turned out before he was able to throw it. >> there seems to be a divide that was widening between the protesters who are getting their message out and they have gone home. they come down when it is lift and there is another core group of people who are the ones that are storing up the violence and looting. they are thes who are throwing rocks and bottles at the officers. do you see that divide is widening more? do you see anger and they are saying let's get the message out without causing this trouble? >> this has been an ongoing issue throughout this entire week. when the looting happen
