4. Idiotic organization by whomever put the conference together. There should have

been somewhere for the press to do their live reports and get their shots without gettting harassed. I hated this hypocritical novice crap when I was a reporter. Get invited somewhere or to something that you DIDN'T have to cover, but you showed up anyway when you could be at home watching TV, and then you'd get harassed for taking a photo.

Or they did it on purpose. Knowing Repubs, they didn't know what they were doing.

saw him on the Ed show and he apologized and said they had rearranged the room to have a press area that wouldn't disturb the participants.

I'm just shocked they would bother the Fox reporter - that would be their best coverage, LOL.

6. And there you go. And the idiots in the audience could have figured that out.

And asked for assistance instead of harassing people trying to do their job.

As much as I dislike "TV people," they work hard at what they do.

7. What are they afraid of? What are they hiding?
Those are the questions real journalists would be asking.

10. Figures it was some old white man. What is that? A television
camera? :wtf: Why is it so so small? Why isn't there a cord attached to your microphone? Why isn't Walter Cronkite covering this instead of you? Ugh.

11. The bright side is that there are no young Values Voters!
Their movement is old, morbidly obese and dying.

13. Fox News Anchor reaps the fruits of ignorance and hate that his overlords have sown.
How totally ironic that the professional newscaster is
harassed by some right-wing nutjob who, in fully RW nutjob
tradition, is so totally ignorant and unaware of the reality
of what is transpiring around him, tries to shut him down and
curb his freedom of speech as well as flipping the proverbial
finger to our basic Constitutional rights, and, after all is
said and done, the newscaster was nothing more than a shill
for the Faux News Channel that has "manufactured"
these teabagging, birthing, hating, deather, truth denialist,
reality is based on unprovable faith and not truthful facts,
sheeple. To quote one of the English languages greatest
writers, Josef Conrad, "The horror"......the horror,
indeed. 

P.S.  NOTE: Even though Josef Conrad was born, grew up and was
educated in Poland and Polish was his primary language, he
didn't learn English until his thirties, and, somehow, became
one of the greatest writers of the modern English language.  
Check out some of his great novels, novelets and short stories
such as:  Lord Jim, Typhoon and, finally, his magnum opus: 
The Heart Of Darkness (which was the inspiration and template
to the movie by Francis Ford Coppola "Apocalypse
Now".

14. he reaps what he sows... poetic justice for faux.
the broadcaster righteous indignation was really funny to watch- especially with one of their propaganda products, a "values voter" organizer, shutting him down.
