images of violence and "disturbances" are shown from the point of the law, the reporters focus on the violence but do now show any considerations to the possible reasons why this is happening, basically they are saying the youths are out of control and are there to cause opportunistic violence. They do not interview any of the rioters to see their point of view trying create bad representation off the youths.
the reporter interviews a stereotypical youth and they've chosen him because he is face is covered and making him look like a criminal. They make it seem that this is an image of a youth although this person does not give a good representation of the young society.
