Fake #staged news either way.  Two white cops arresting a black reporter live on CNN?  Come on man!  That is note random

oh for sure.  He knew it was going to happen.  Arresting a hispanic producer, black reporter, and unidentified cameraman?  Hollywood will be calling their script writer very soon.

I will say this.  The police messed this up.  When the guy said "I will report from wherever you tell me to go."  They should have escorted him out of the area to where they wanted them and not feed narrative that CNN was selling them.

why was he arrested though?  My guess is that he crossed over into a restricted area?

My understanding is that they were originally told by police they could stand there.

Then apparently at a later time (not sure how much later) they were told to move (given no reason), and I guess they didn't move fast enough, even though if you watch the video the police didn't tell them where to move, or where they could move to.

In the course of clearing the streets and restoring order at Lake Street and Snelling Avenue, four people were arrested by State Patrol troopers, including three members of a CNN crew. The three were released once they were confirmed to be members of the media.

Sounds plausible to me...

If there was video showing the few minutes before I think CNN laid the bait, and the police took it.  

 

I was waiting for a police officer say , You are being arrested for broadcasting fake news ! "

But it could’ve been the 6th time he’d been told.  We’ll never know that part

 In the video his press credentials in his right hand and then clipped to his waist while being cuffed.

If your were "stirring" up trouble in the old days you got arrested. Just how it was no matter the "color".

Now, I'm sure in your "independent" ways you would disagree. Back in the 70's and 80's ALL independents agreed with the arrest.

Just shows, your not a true in the middle "guy" as you try to advertise.
