A week of protests, reviewed

Bill Radke reviews the week's news with Univision Seattle's Pablo Gaviria, Kiro-7's Essex Porter, and Civic Cocktail's Joni Balter.

This week tens of thousands of people took to the streets of Seattle to protest a long history of police killing and abusing Black people, including George Floyd in Minneapolis. We walk through the week's protests, the response from Seattle Police, and what's happening in Snohomish county.

Plus, these protests are largely about changing how police departments operate, with demands from organizers ranging from demilitarization to defunding. What exactly are organizers asking for, and how likely is the Seattle Police Department to comply?

Also, there is still a pandemic going on. What are medical professionals saying about the lack of social distancing, and use of aerosol weapons such as tear gas, during these protests? And what effect will this have on King County moving to phase 1.5?

Finally, we are the media. And we've spent the entire show, and most of the week, covering these protests. But are we doing it right? What is the role of journalists and media during a time of civil unrest?
