Talk:riot boosting

RFV discussion: June–August 2020
Both terms were hot words in 2019. I can find a fair number of news articles that use riot boosting, and a smaller (but >3) number using riot booster. The problem is, they are all directly related to either a 2019 South Dakota law, which was struck down, and/or a 2020 law to replace it. Is this sufficiently independent for attestation?

 * If it's only used talking about South Dakota 2019-2020, I would drop it as a sum of parts of + . Vox Sciurorum (talk) 16:43, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
 * If it is used in durably archived independent cites about those who are accused of being or are found to be riot-boosters and the term appears in the law(s), then its meaning in law would almost certainly not be SoP. DCDuring (talk) 21:32, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
 * It is used in the S.D. law. New York Magazine* claimed in Dec. 19, 2019 that the term was 'invented last year by South Dakota lawmakers'. The Billings Gazette*(AP 3/4/20) (MT) and the Sioux Falls Argus Leader and Rapid City Journal*, have articles using riot-booster as do Mother Jones*, Seattle Times*, Washington Times*, The Atlantic*, and Rolling Stone*. The publications marked by "*" have print editions (some only on weekends), though I can't determine whether the relevant text appeared in a print edition for most of them. Most of the publications run the story over the name of their own staff reporter, not one from a syndicator like AP. The first cite I found that might be durably archived cite was in the Washington Times on March 7, 2019. June 4, 2020 is the date of a recent Rolling Stones story.
