NBC News Ignores Antifa Attack On Their Own News Crew In Charlottesville

NBC News has ignored the story of their own reporter and news crew being attacked in the streets of Charlottesville by Antifa marchers on Saturday.

From NewsBusters: On the one-year anniversary of the deadly Charlottesville protests, white supremacists and radical leftists known as Antifa descended on the Virginia town once more to commit more violence. Late Saturday night, NBC News reporter Cal Perry and his crew were in the thick of it as Antifa members ganged up on them and attacked. The next morning, NBC’s Sunday Today ignored the attack and suggested the media was simply “heckled” by their assaulters.

On Twitter, Perry was documenting the protesters as they marched through the streets of college town when they started to get “very aggressive with the media” and trying to block their camera shots. “Yeah. We’re getting a lot of this. Protesters trying to grab our camera,” he responded to one Twitter commenter telling him to “f**k off national media vulture.”

Blue on Blue, friendly fire. Not a hostile act, just a mistaken ID, they thought they were Fox News.

Never let the truth get in the way of the agenda.

These folks are really brave in a mob, or when wearing masks.

Did any of the white nationalists bother showing up? I know Proud Boys said they wanted nothing to do with Obama-voting leftists Jason Kessler, Richard Spencer, David Duke and their goose-stepping Nazi clowns and they had no intentions of being anywhere near this embarrassing abomination.

As far as I can tell, it's mostly been Antifa vs. the police.

NBC shadow-bans the Left when they do bad things, and shadow-bans the Right when they do good things.

CNN needs to send their boy, Little Jimmy Acosta down there to read the riot act to Aunt Teefah’s Xbox boys for picking on America’s Greatest Heroes, The DNC’s “mainstream media”. LOL.

Social Media, Antifa, BLM, etc. seem to be untouchable by the MSM, Congress, FBI, CIA. certainly Jeff Session’s won’t do or can’t do anything about these lawless groups...aren’t they blackmailing in a way?

I had a discussion with an 80’yr old woman distributed flyers for a super lefty. Free everything etc
I asked her if she had ever heard of antifa. She had not
In the end I told her I thought it was all about LOVE and she was taken aback and went on and on about her life and what she believed in etc
At some point I told her I had to go
Life is funny. Never show your cards. Just ask questions

The MSM won’t cover anything that doesn’t fit their narrative. About 5 years ago in Norfolk, Virginia, two white reporters were attacked by a mob of blacks. They suffered injuries severe enough to keep them out of work for a week. Even the newspaper they worked for didn’t cover it.
