(2011) Daily Caller reporter, videographer assaulted by NYPD during ‘Occupy’ protests
The Daily Caller ^ | November 17, 2011 | J.Arthur Bloom

Posted on 03/30/2016 5:58:05 AM PDT by PghBaldy

While covering Occupy Wall Street’s “Day of Action” Thursday morning, Daily Caller reporter Michelle Fields and videographer Direna Cousins were struck by NYPD officers as police tried to clear Wall Street of protesters.

“The police officers were beating the protesters with batons, and were also beating the media,” Fields told TheDC. “They hit Direna and me with batons. They hit other members of the press in order to get them to move out of the street.”

This is one earlier case Michelle Fields was involved in, though no charges were ever filed.

Fields is still saying that the latest “incident’ is the most traumatic event in her life other than her father dying. She must really have led a sheltered life.

Here is the picture of where the cops are helping her get back up after being knocked down by the protesters.

Here is proof Michelle Fields is a LIAR.

Fields Statement:

"Campaign managers aren’t supposed to try to forcefully throw reporters to the ground, no matter the circumstance. But what made this especially jarring is that there was no hint Trump was done taking questions. No one was pushing him to get away. He seemed to have been happily answering queries from my fellow reporters just a moment before."

Terris, the reporter who is 'backing her up' said this:

"As security parted the masses to give him passage out of the chandelier-lit ballroom, Michelle Fields, a young reporter for Trump-friendly Breitbart News, pressed forward to ask the GOP front-runner a question. I watched as a man with short-cropped hair and a suit grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the way. He was Corey Lewandowski, Trump’s 41-year-old campaign manager."

She posted pictures if the latest grabbing. Bruises on her forearm.

She in the video is touched on her bicep.

I wish my eyes & brain were better (various health problems), but I never see what people claim to see in the videos.

I'm pretty sure her FR keyword is illustrative of the point of this article.

[forcefully throw reporters to the ground,]

Wow, that would take some force to throw someone clear through the floor into or onto the ground.

As the cops help her up, she claimed she was beaten.

I wish.
