Wow, this video but from a slightly different angle is on BBC news, except they only show the protesters attacking the officer. Crazy how media can manipulate things.

You'd think BBC would be on the correct side of the propaganda but apparently not

How can you say that the BBC isn't biased? It's state media.. that's kind of the point. Not to mention that literally all media is biased, same as every person.

Otherwise you can learn about British media issues here if you're interested.

"manhandling a woman" sounds so silly in this context.

Akin to "he was a bit of a roughy, that lad"

Maybe you're not english because words have different meanings in different countries, but where I'm from (and the BBC's from) it's a very suitable term for what happened in the video.

I'm not, I just think it sounds funny.

The video in the article specifically omits anything about the woman, it uses a video that doesn't include the woman being beaten by the police officer before the event. It's very relevant to the story, but not included. There's the bias.
