I believe the reporter's name is Mike Tobin. He was the reporter who said last night on Geraldo's show that the thugs had hatred in their eyes. He said the crowd was hateful again today. The thugs started chanting against Fox News, blocking the camera and then, just a couple of seconds after the on screen image of the thugs at work was replaced with one of the occupied cap. building rotunda, the reporter could clearly be heard saying one thug had just hit him!
Mediaite and The Blaze have the story and video up now.
I saw that. People who don’t like press coverage are usually up to no good!!
Working on that video now as well...
Isn’t that the guy that was ranting earlier this week,”Fox Lies”?
The congressman said it had to get bloody. People usually do what they’re told.
If the government-controlled media gives this pass, I’m taking it as their tacit approval of physical assaults on media types.
Why did Fox cave so easily and break away? Just the the Republicans in the US Congress. Pitiful!
The whole WI affair provides a good education of how far we have sunk as a nation. We have become a country divided between privileged union thugs who think that the country owes them the many benefits that those in the private sector never enjoyed.
BUST THE UNIONS and let them compete on a level playing field.
It’s telling how Obama has nothing to say about civility now that his thugs are taking over in Madison. He fully supports their “by any means necessary” tactics.
“stay peaceful” you can hear in the backround. This thugish crowd needs constant reminder.

Not union thugs. Government thugs. Big difference.
Heh heh. I’d like to think so, too. On Twitter, I suggested that he add Wisconsin to his combat resume.
Hope he presses charges.
Tobin tweeted: “and no, I declined to press charges over a couple little punches in the arm. puh-lease. That would just amount to an unnesc distraction.”

Ive noticed that FOX is pretty piss poor when it comes to continuing coverage of some things. These protests are a big deal and one would think it would merit a bit more coverage than the occasional live interview. As for Tobin, why the heck would they not leave the camera on Tobin, it drives me insane that they show inside the building instead of keeping the cameras on Mike being heckled.
