Seattle police fired flash bangs and tear gas to break up a crowd of demonstrators on a baseball field in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of the city – and an MSNBC reporter and her crew were among those forced to disperse. The frightening video footage shows Jo Ling Kent reporting live on the air of the cable news channel late on Monday night, when police surged toward an area packed with demonstrators and used crowd-dispersal methods.

Why don’t they use Rachel Maddow as a human shield in these situations?

The lamestream media reporters are essentially instigating the riots by glorifying them.

The headline writer actually meant to write “Hilarifying”.

Is there nothing that isn’t terrifying to the wimps at the Daily Mail.

They're protests.

Didn’t the Seattle libtard mayor castigate the President for admonishing lefty governors and mayors to buck-up or he’d seen in the Army? She was sooo offended by his remarks, but it sure looks like it worked!

MAGA

Most of what passes for journalism today is some slight variation of “I didn’t vote for Trump and I want my money back!”

I am reminded of how some get upset when soldiers are attacked by those using human shields end up harming some of the human shields.

Reporters in gas masks need to understand they stand out and rioters can use them as human shields. When the police tell a group to disperse they mean everyone, including reporters.

She took it like a man. Fox News should hire her. She makes the cowardly ninnies of the MSM look like euro weenies.

She sure knows how to run while her care bear crew jump up and down around her like they are popping corn out of their respective arses.

And she was ready for it with the gas mask on for effect.

Great photo op on their part.
