What was the plan here?
You're looking for an answer more complicated than "it wanted some attention"?
If these places are so safe and peaceful then why do they need the security detail?
What do you think is in those backpacks?
It's pretty standard practice when covering protests and riots. Even if they are fawning over the protesters on screen they aren't going to take any chances with them. It's kinda funny though when they are giving the "peaceful" line while bringing out security contractors that you'd usually see with journalists in war zones in some cases.
