The Enemy of the People

When you have the President of the United States calling the media the “enemy of the people,” incidents like this one should not surprise us.

A news crew from Tegna’s KUSA (Denver) was on assignment when a man threw a rock through the window of the live truck.

Violence against Journalists is rising and that is scary.

I know I’ll get the email saying, “how do you know this is Trump’s fault?” The answer is I don’t but I do know that having the President calling the media the enemy and “fake news” on almost a daily basis is certainly not helping.

News crews are being verbally attacked and spit on by people that are quoting Trump. Believe what you want, but is ongoing rhetoric is making it tougher for Journalists to do their job.

Reporter Liz Kotalik posted pictures of the van and explained what happened:
