The media is trying to give BLM the monopoly claim over these protests, as to stir racial divides, both among black people and white people.
If the media presented these protests as being anti-police-misconduct protests, which they are, then people would quickly get on board and band together to make specific changes to make police more accountable for their misconduct. This is what the media would look like if it actually represented the best will of the people.
Instead it serves only to divide and conquer, by constantly calling these "BLM protests". This is their way of shrinking the overton window to be around race-based conversations, rather than a unified conversation of Americans against police misconduct.
