NBC anchor says "this will guide OUR reporting" on MN: Don't call 'em riots--call 'em "protests"

If I told you that a "news" anchor for both NBC and MSNBC said "This will guide our reporting about the...situation on the ground in Minneapolis:

 'While there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as 'protests', not riots,'

...would you think those two networks were trying to keep Americans from knowing the truth?

Would you think this was honest, unbiased reporting, or would you think it showed those networks were trying to conceal the truth...thus favoring looters and rioters?

Craig Melvin is the anchor.  Here's a tweet from his verified Twatter account:

This will guide our reporting in MN. “While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as "protests"--not riots.”
