VIDEO: 9/12 Marchers Heckle CNN Reporter: 'Tell the Truth'

Maybe there's a reason why the media have either denigrated or completely ignored the Sept. 12 march in Washington, D.C. - they were highly critical of their job performance as well.

Aside from protesters taking on CNN reporter Lisa Desjardins, as NewsBusters Matt Sheffield pointed out, there were also other pockets of backlash against media evident at the march, which were captured on video (pardon my shoddy camera work).

"You're supposed to use freedom of the press to protect us," one participant yelled at Steinhauser, expressing his frustration with CNN's decision to down play the ACORN scandal covered by Fox News and the circumstances surrounding the background of President Barack Obama's green jobs czar, Van Jones. "So where have you guys been?" (0:56)

Steinhauser also faced chants of "Glenn Beck," "Tell the truth," and a term conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh employs - "State-run media." (1:21)

I saw the segment during the chants of “Glenn Beck!” Hilarious. CNN’s people had to be seething that Beck was being promoted on their air.

I laughed out loud when the crowd started chanting "GLENN BECK!"

The sign that said, "JOE WILSON FOR TRUTH CZAR" was PERFECT!
