Morgan Freeman slams media coverage of Baltimore riots

Morgan Freeman has slammed media for their coverage on Baltimore riots in the wake of Freddie Gray's death saying "F--k the Media'".

The Shawshank Redemption star said in an interview that cameras actually distort the story and the story already happened and the story began with policy and apexed with Gray's death, E! Online reported.

The 77-year-old actor said that the story is simple i.e. Gray died in state custody and unlikely anyone will be punished and the cameras were not actually adding to the story and the media could not really clarify the narrative.

The Academy award winning actor continued that the news channels were just doing commentary and are only commenting on things.

Freeman then added that technological advancements like cameras and security footage have been beneficial in telling the true stories behind alleged police brutality.
