breaking news on Syrian regime TV

Syrian regime TV has this breaking news flash:  "Armed people block the roads in Nazihin quarter in Homs and set government buildings on fire, and attack the people."  On the one hand, "life is normal"--they keep reporting, and then they air such breaking news stories.  The regime is undermining its own sources of ostensible legitimacy: that it alone can protect the people. But they are now admitted they can no more protect the people.
