@Arafat ,
The sentence is badly written.
These people are called "rioters," and are deemed harmful to society by the local media.
Gee, I read his sentence as meaning:
The media is calling these people "rioters" and deem they are harmful to society.

So, is it the media that is calling these people rioters, or are they being called rioters by some unnamed others?
@Arafat ,
Oh, Punkey's rewrite is better, then.
