To recap: Many outlets, inc @CBSNew, arrived around 12 noon in Bucks County to cover surging Sen. candidate Kathy Barnette at an event publicly listed as her final rally before she faces voters. From the start, a security team of at least 5 physically blocked us from entering...
The guards refused to give names or say whether they worked for Barnette or Trump-endorsed PA GOV candidate Mastriano. Whenever we stepped forward, they blocked us. We were civil & careful to not physically provoke in order to avoid altercation, but still rep. tried to move fwd.
We pushed for a spokesperson for the campaign to appear. Anyone. Give us clarity. Why were we not allowed to come in? What's the deal? The security guards said nothing, kept blocking us. When we pushed harder for an answer, they brought more guards over and...
produced a letter purportedly from the venue saying we couldn't even sit or move toward the bar/food area on the premises even though it was open to the public. We were stopped from even doing that by guards who warned us not to move an inch past them.
To conclude, what struck me was how no explanation was offered. No Barnette or Mastriano aides formally addressed the press despite repeated calls to do so. No one offered explanation for conduct of guards + refusal to allow reporters to simply cover a now major Senate campaign.

Go Kathy!!
Final few days now… Everyone wish her luck!
Doug Mastriano also was at the rally.
Most of the media are an enemy of the American People.
Love the smell of whining Enemedia in the morning !
They mean like blocked with a giant fence around the building indefinitely?
Oh never mind that’s just for capitol Hill which they never said a word about.....EFF ‘EM
They are describing one guy as a pirate because of his hat. I think it is suppose to be more like they wore when fighting the English
Not sold on her yet but NEVER TRUST THE MEDIA!
Did MSM complain when candidate BIDEN had closed events?
So nice to see the propagandists treated with due respect.
“Not sold on her yet...”
Me too. What does she do to make her living? I’m concerned that perhaps she’s had the same coach as Obama. She has the patter down just right.
The media are racist, sexists.
Wow. I’m really surprised about this after the media has been so fair and honest in Barnette’s coverage...
Bob Woodward is an associate editor at @washingtonpost. New book: PERIL
Bwaa haa haa
By being partisan, the media loses its bona fides as a neutral reporter of facts. It’s no longer an observer but a participant, and will be treated accordingly.
The same people who supported Twitter’s right’s to ban whomever conservatives they wished “because it is a private company,” are now bitching and complaining on Twitter because they can’t handle their own truth. What is good for the goose is also good for the gander.
Married with children whom she homeschooled. I'm guessing her husband works. Really weird stuff.
Yet she hides details about info that she uses in her campaign. Why? Just saw her on Fox News Sunday ignore question about her being an adjunct professor? Why?
What are you talking about? She’s a married mom who has recently been homeschooling her kids, wrote a book, ran for Congress and is now running for Senate. Previously she was in the military in the reserves for a decade and she also worked for two major financial services companies and the corporate finance office of a major retailer.
Don’t be fooled by the $30M of globalist funding (yes, both Oz and McCormick are Klaus Schwab boys) and media trying to keep a true patriot from representing PA.
No bigger an Establishment shill than Costa.
Reminds me of GOP voters who were turned away from their polling places on 11/3/2020 because they “had already voted”.
Or GOP poll watchers who were prohibited from watching ballots being “counted”, via pizza boxes taped over windows.
Did the press condemn any of this? IIRC, they did not.
