On Wednesday night, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson did a segment going after the work of NBC News reporter Brandy Zadrozny, saying, “Her job is personally seeking out and identifying information about anonymous Trump supporters online.”
He brought on Darren Beattie from Revolver News, who accused Zadrozny of “doing everything she can to unearth anonymous Trump supporters basically so she can ruin their lives.”
“Why would NBC News be doing something like this?” Carlson asked.
Beattie said journalists like her are trying to “crush the rebellion of the American people against their corrupt ruling class associated with the victory of Donald Trump.”
After the segment aired, a number of other journalists — including some NBC News colleagues — came to her defense. NBC News PR tweeted a statement defending Zadrozny and saying, “Brandy is an incredible and meticulous reporter. We’re proud to call her our colleague.”

EXCERPT
CARLSON: Well, a so-called reporter at NBC has been caught talking about her efforts to find the personal details of anonymous Trump supporters online and expose them. One of the creepiest stories of the year, we have details straight ahead.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
CARLSON: Brandy Zadrozny is a quote “reporter” with NBC News. What does she do exactly? Well by her description, her job is seeking out personally identifying information about anonymous Trump supporters online, some of them, and revealing their true identities.
Zadrozny has acknowledged quote this, “I use social media sleuthing to learn about a subject’s real life, their family, friends, jobs, personal and political associations.” So what does that mean exactly? What kind of information? Well, that information could include phone records, property records, even their Amazon wish lists.
What is this about exactly? Darren Beattie is one of the people who broke the story. He is with “Revolver News.” Darren, thanks so much for joining us. So before you get into the larger meaning of this, tell us specifically what this — what is she doing? What does this mean?
DARREN BEATTIE, REVOLVER NEWS: She’s up to no good. As you mentioned, she uses state of the art proprietary technical tools to dig up personal information about anonymous Trump supporters online. As you mentioned, that includes property records, phone records, even Amazon wish lists, you name it.
She will do everything she can to unearth anonymous Trump supporters, basically so she can ruin their lives.
CARLSON: Why would NBC News be doing something like this? I mean, you would think NBC’s job would be to tell us the news. What do the policies mean? Why would it be going after anonymous Twitter users?
BEATTIE: It’s a great question. It really is disgusting. It’s disgraceful even by modern journalist standards. I’d love for NBC to comment on this.
We see these journalists who are not even acting as meaningful journalists, what they’re doing is acting as commissars, a neo-Stasi effectively in order to crush the rebellion of the American people against their corrupt ruling class associated with the victory of Donald Trump.
There’s one aspect of this story that’s maybe even more disturbing than what you described, and that is that Brandy Zadrozny uses this term “disinformation” as the pretext to go after Trump supporters and destroy their lives.
I think many viewers have seen disinformation is this new buzzword, this new pretext used to silence Trump supporters. What’s especially dangerous about this is that it brings this force to bear in the National Security context, disinformation is a National Security term. It invites the force of our own National Security apparatus to silence Trump supporters domestically.
And it’s part of this trend that we’re seeing a broader swathes of our own national security apparatus, being repurposed and redeployed domestically to silence, suppress and destroy the energies associated with Donald Trump’s victory in 2016.
CARLSON: For a news organization to work in concert with the Federal agencies to suppress dissent domestically, I mean, that’s — I never imagined that would happen, but that is happening.
BEATTIE: Right. The full story of this, I would need hours to explain, but just a little detail, so she wrote for her fellow journalists a manual, a doxing manual detailing her methods for fellow journalists who fail the same ethics class.
One of the sponsors of her doxing manual and how to ruin Trump supporters’ lies by uncovering their personal information is Bellingcat, an organization funded by NED and our own government. Taxpayers are funding this.
CARLSON: It’s unbelievable. Noah Oppenheim at NBC News. One of the people who should answer. The guy who apparently leaked the “Access Hollywood” tape to “”The Washington Post”” in 2016. They never have to answer the question.
BEATTIE: Absolutely.
CARLSON: Darren Beattie, great to see tonight. Congrats on the story.
BEATTIE: Great to be here. Thank you.
wiki:
Bellingcat has received grants from Porticus, Adessium, The National Endowment for Democracy, Pax For Peace, Open Society Foundation, the Dutch Postcode Lottery, and the Digital News Initiative.[14][15][8] Higgins has said much of the grant money does not directly fund investigations and is used for support services such as document translations and training.[8] The organisation publishes guides on how to analyse data and how to create reports, such as “How to Scrape Interactive Geospacial Data” and “How to Identify Burnt Villages by Satellite Imagery”.[13]
Higgins told Polygraph.info that grants from the NED and OSF pay for Bellingcat programs to help journalists and researchers in their investigations.[8] He further clarified that “Most our funding from grants (i.e. NED, OSF etc.) covers stuff that isn’t related to investigating anything Russia related.”[8][1][2][16][17][18][19]
Dox her. And listen to her complain. Remember: leftists are hypocrites.
Zadrozny isn't practicing journalism; this is electronic thuggery.
Brandy needs to legally change her name or marry someone with a better last name.
Is there a difference these days? Only in rare cases.
That's not a denial of her attacks on Trump supporters. In fact, it looks like NBC News PR approves of what she is doing...

Interesting that there are no denials in all the defensive tweets in this article.
That would imply they all know what she's doing, would it not?
....maybe they even HELP her....
Open Society Foundation = Soros.
I read it too.
There’s nothing new there - mostly a rehash of the same tools any competent skip tracer uses. I find it amusing that she’s broken her own cardinal rules - she arrogantly exposed too much personal information about herself and revealed herself to be a malignant troll.
It will be interesting to see what the blogosphere does with the info...
Dox her
........................
and all the rest of the liberal ‘rat bstrds.
The ‘rats use the tactic all the time. Surround Senator’s homes, Any other conservative they don’t like.
Time to retaliate.
If I were on her hit list, I’d dox her.
