'Deafening Silence’ From CNN’s April Ryan After Bodyguard Is Charged with Assault
American Greatness ^ | 8/20/2019 | Debra Heine

Posted on 08/21/2019 6:57:39 AM PDT by simpson96

CNN political analyst April Ryan refuses to comment on an altercation that took place during a speaking event in New Jersey earlier this month leading to her bodyguard being charged with harassment, assault and theft.

Ryan’s bodyguard–Joel Morris, 30, of Illinois–was charged with the crimes after violently ejecting a journalist from the New Jersey Parent Summit on Aug. 3.

Videos posted online show New Brunswick Today editor Charlie Kratovil being roughed up by Ryan’s goon after spending two hours inside filming other guests and speakers without any problems.

Kratovil’s video shows Ryan taking the stage and Morris approaching the podium, apparently seeking instruction. Ryan says something and gives Morris a nod. He then walks over to Kratovil and allegedly grabs his video camera.

“Put that down,” Kratovil exclaims. “Don’t you dare — put that down, sir! That’s my camera!”

As the struggle ensued, Ryan told the audience: “What I will say, when I speak, I don’t have news covering my speeches.”

Kratovil told NJ Advance Media that he had “no choice” but to leave the room at that point. “That camera is worth more than my car. I was able to retrieve it but was not able to avoid being attacked by this guy,” he said.

No. The French truffle-diggers are much more intelligent and better looking.

Leftie never admit they were wrong, and the press won’t hound them or even follow up.

who is april ryan

A fat, ugly, communist, racist bitch who occasionally pukes up lies on the Communist News Network.

This thread is perfectly fine with the one picture already posted.

"No. The French truffle-diggers are much more intelligent and better looking."

I stand corrected. I regret the error.

April is undeniably a public person, there should be no restriction on covering her at public events.

Let’s see: one leftwad bucket of dog crap beat up another leftwad bucket of dog crap.

Which side should I be on, I wonder.

...cross dressing as Mr. Rogers, the Tooth Fairy, and St. Nick all rolled into one incredibly warm, loving, and giving institution...

Nothing more dangerous than the True Believer that sees paradise on the other side of fully implementing their vision.
