In the case of that Australian journalist there's no question: you can see the policeman carefully aim at her and fire. It's right there in the video.

Let me see if I can get this right...
"Oh that's out of context" "We didn't see the entire thing, we don't know what the officer saw" "Officer attempts to stop Foreign propagandists, is defamed in fake news, has to take weeks off on paid emotional leave, GoFundMe to follow"
One of those will be on the Fox headlines.
Only one?
"questions"... lol.
No. They are targets. always have been.
Yeah but recently Israel showed people that it's acceptable. Too many dead journalists covering that war.
Breaking News: Reporters who are constantly told they are "Public Enemy #1" by administration for over 8 years question if the administration actually likes them.
I have never before been inspired by so many posts to respond thusly:
Well, duh.
How do people still claim to have questions? How do they pretend to be surprised when Trump lies? How can they still claim shock when they discover lawlessness?
I mean, seriously. Duh.
Police have always been afraid of cameras and their operators.
But only advocates!
Remember, if you find yourself asking this seemingly obvious questions, you are also an advocate!
And how can you be a good, neutral centrists if you're an advocate!? Why, the very idea is ludicrous!
So, be a real fence sitter. Remember, avoid being an advocate by not asking the wrong kinds of questions! 🌈⭐
I mean when even the NY Post gets shot, I don’t think there’s a question about it.
Frankly I’m surprised they haven’t resorted to the scramblers they had out at the Dakota access pipeline.
More than two dozen journalists have been injured or roughed up while covering protests
More than double the number of Waymo cars that were on fire.
