MSNBC employee caught following Rittenhouse jury bus

NBC producer says he was instructed to follow the jury bus. Judge bans MSNBC from the courthouse for the rest of the trial.

How has a mistrial not been declared.

“the media is the enemy of the people”, isn’t looking as deranged a statement as it once did.

I truly hope this is all a hoax. I don’t want to know the media would do this.

Back to the press is the enemy of the people nothing authoritarian about that!

the judge is admitting he doesn’t know the facts . if only the media could say that when covering things like this trial, duke lacrosse, covington catholic, and on and on.

dear wayne, trump is no longer president.... and based on what Jim writes, it honestly doesn't sound like he is a big trump guy....

it's weird how you constantly insist on things that aren't true...being a big "facts" guy, and all

Stacey Abrams still
insists her election was stolen. And she is very prominent on the left. so as always, trump is awful for
making bs allegations, but it’s totally acceptable when democrats do it.

keep bleating it wayne…


republicans baaaaaad, democrats good.

Is it a violation of some law to follow a jury bus?

here’s the difference between me and you. i can say that the rabid partisans at fox ( sean hannity) are also doing a disservice. but you can’t criticize the left.

fox news is one tv station. every other thing station slants left.

fox has some hosts that lean right, but who aren’t crazy about it like don lemon, chris cuomo, joy reid is in a class all by herself.

there’s no balance there.

It’s more to make sure that no jury tampering can occur and/or any of the jurors get identified prior to the verdict.

it’s not illegal. it’s unbelievable disrespectful of the process, indescribably stupid. you leave the jury completely alone or the process can’t work.

Stupid but the police says he never approached the bus and he never took a picture. I'm guessing they wanted to know where the Hotel was so after the verdict was announced they can go talk to the jurors at their hotel

they also say he ran a red light in order to stay behind the bus. that looks really, really suspicious, beyond stupid for any TV station. hopefully no harm.

you had some pics of some beautiful fish you caught recently. have a great thanksgiving .

network that has been saying he is guilty since day one, is following the jury bus.

if the jurors are aware they were followed ( and i just learned they are not sequestered, these jurors are going home every night, so come on), how would a normal person be expected to react to that.

But Trump is bad, and only one thing can be true at a time!!’
