Did somebody forget to tell CNN's Atlanta HQ that we're supposed to build 'bridges not walls' and that protests have been 'mostly peaceful'

In the Trump era, the intrepid journalists at CNN have been at the forefront of helping Democrats spread their preferred narrative, from “bridges not walls” to the recent protest being “mostly peaceful”:

Americans have flooded the streets of major metropolitan areas protesting racially-motivated police brutality. While mostly peaceful, the civil unrest does pose a unique security concern for those in charge of protecting the priceless art housed there.https://t.co/cOOHdfmQ2J

But at the CNN headquarters in Atlanta, they don’t seem to be believing their own reports:

If you’re keeping score at home, update the talking points to “walls are bad unless they help guard media buildings”:

I don’t get it, why would a protective barrier help? https://t.co/nSQkmzTaJi

If CNN was really interested in a solution, they would have built bridges instead of walls in order to understand the feelings of the rioters that vandalized their property https://t.co/aFs3zFdWy7

A barrier bordering their HQ?
Protecting their homeland of sorts? Interesting.

We’ve been told that “bridges not walls” is the only way to go. The rules must be different when it’s CNN’s property on the line.

Hey, CNN built a wall. https://t.co/lll1CiWAc2

So… they built a wall? https://t.co/x3hFp35oNB

We were told that building walls for security is racist. https://t.co/9nOblBuLFz
