CNN's "African-American" French

Reporter Chris Burns: "There is at this point about half as many vehicles torched as the night before, so you might call that progress, Carol."
Anchor Carol Lin: "Hard to say, because it's been 11 days since two African-American teenagers were killed, electrocuted during a police chase, which prompted all of this."
- Exchange following a November 6 CNN Sunday Night story about the riots in France. The two teenagers were not Americans, but French citizens of Tunisian heritage
