Mara Gay Helps Mayor Bass Downplay L.A. Riots: ‘Cherry Picked Images from the Trump Administration’

EXCERPT:

GAY: "Mayor, you know, we're getting cherry-picked images from the Trump administration, a sense of that there's chaos in Los Angeles. Can you actually talk to us --"
BASS: "No."
GAY: "-- about what has driven most Angelenos into the streets and how this movement of people who are peacefully protesting largely feels on the ground?"
BASS: "Well, again, we are a city of 3.8 million, 500 square miles. This is happening over about five or six streets in downtown Los Angeles. The curfew that we put in place last night covers about 2 square miles of our city.”
