Finally some good news from the land time forgot.
Hope everyone gets their Christmas wishes, I just got mine.
More chasing down and beating right wing wacko vids and threads please
retweet this for me
Right. Sloppy of me to make such an assumption. So I checked the source and there was no evidence the victim was a right wing wacko. I also found no evidence that the attackers were ANTIFA. So it's a wash.
Sloppy of you as well for posting this retweet from a person claiming to be a journalist.
Ngo has zero point zero schooling in journalism. None
Trump cultist shot a counterprotestor in Washington yesterday. Funny no thread about that.

Doesn't work that way. The person reporting the incident could have said the attackers were maligned members of the Blue Group. Just saying it doesn't make it true. When you take the word of some internet nobody you are taking a leap of faith.
Opinions/beliefs are not facts.
Just for good measure I edited his Wiki page describing him as a journalist.

No it is not. Presenting something for public consumption come at a cost.
It's called credibility. Major news organizations hire people with degrees in journalism and those journalists are held accountable for every story they report on. Likewise, these organizations are held accountable.
People without journalistic credentials don't understand the need for balance in every story. Every story must be presented with all sides accounted for.
This doesn't always happen when someone declares themselves a reporter.
A career is not at risk when checks and balances are not provided

...with actual context. Play stupid games and all that.
Also from the guy filming this,
"I would have continued filming if I had not been blocked. My job is to bear witness to this stuff and inform the public.
Note: demonstrators didn’t get physical w/ me. They just physically block my POV."
To follow up I looked up the provider of the video posted by Andy Ngo and the one you re-posted. The initial report came from Scott Rudd who is employed by CapRadioNews as a "State reporter"
Now Mr. Rudd has no journalism degree to his credit, but, looking at his report I can tell you he has done a good job. His piece on the riots/violence spell out the problem
including viewpoints from all sides.
It is now clear that Mr. Ngo has cherry picked video from the initial piece, adding his commentary but ignoring many points made in the initial report.
