Intimidating a journalist to become a federal crime
feb 6 2018 It would be laughable if it were not so cunning in intent: the Journalist Protection Act to protect reporters from the “toxic environment” supposedly created by President Donald Trump, who truthfully accuses media outlets like CNN of reporting “fake news”.
If California Democrat Eric Swalwell gets his way—and with Maxine Waters among 12 other Congressional Democrats on his side, who’s to say he won’t—it will now be a federal crime to “intimidate” or attack journalists.
Democrats who need the running dog mainstream media to remain in elected office claim journalists now need extra protection to carry out their jobs free from intimidation—and violence.
“A group of 13 congressional Democrats are sponsoring the Journalist Protection Act, which would make it a federal crime to intentionally injure a journalist or intimidate reporters while they’re working.” (NewsWeek, Feb. 6, 2018)
