This is Just Plain Wrong...

There have been so many incidents of the press being mistreated by police or authorities while trying to cover the protests and FTVLive can’t cover all the incidents.

Just to give you an idea as to how bad this has gotten. US Press Tracker says that they have documented 100-150 press freedom violations in the US per year, for the last 3 years.

They are currently investigating over 100 violations from the past 3 days.

The media has become a target during the protests. You somewhat expect that from “bad actors” that are “protesting,” but many incidents are the media being mistreated by the police.

This is completely unacceptable. The media is not the enemy, despite what the President keeps saying.
