MSNBC Media Scum

Posted some of this in the Rittenhouse Trial thread but this deserves it's own thread and shows yet again how the media are liberal scum. MSNBC was following the jury members in the trial

MSNBC was barred from the courtroom for the remainder of the Rittenhouse trial after an employee allegedly followed the jury bus. Judge Bruce Schroeder called the matter deeply disturbing and serious during a brief statement from the bench.

Here's the facts: NBC News producer Irene Min Joo Byon instructed James J. Morrison to follow the bus transporting the Kyle Rittenhouse jury. Jurors have expressed concerns over getting doxed and having their safety threatened. Morrison smashed through a red light to follow them.

NBC producer Irene Min Joo Byon has deleted her social media accounts. A journalist suspected of trying to photograph the jurors said Byon was his producer at MSNBC and instructed him to follow them.

MSNBC has been banned from the courthouse for the remainder of Rittenhouse trial.

MSNBC now publicly confirms that their employee was involved in following the bus of jurors in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, “regrets the incident.”

Come on - the only thing MSNBC regrets is getting caught.
heaven forbid someone would have been hit or killed when the asshole ran the red light. Then there would be an actual crime worth an actual trial unlike this witch hunt that we are currently in the midst of. #FreeKyle

MSNBC has now been banned from the Kenosha courtroom after an employee allegedly followed the jurors in a car and may have sought to take their pictures. I have worked for networks from NBC to CBS to BBC to Fox and it is hard to express just how moronic such an act would be for a media organization. This is a trial in a city on the edge after violent rioting before the alleged crime. To dispatch an employee to follow the jurors would be perfectly insane. It violates the first rule of legal coverage: do not become part of the story

MSNBC obstructing justice by trying to make the Rittenhouse jurors know that the media is watching them and trying to discover their identity, as a little warning that they had better deliver the right verdict

The seriousness of this incident cannot be overstated. It is not simply because the police suspected MSNBC was trying to take their pictures. If the jurors believed that they were being followed, it could add to their unease about voting in the case.

Pitiful!

The conspiracy channel known as msnbc, Im sure will have a spin of their own on this.

It will be interesting if madcow mentions this tonight?
... The Judge surely needs to END this farce
before one or more of the jury is assaulted.

... So THIS is what passes for the honest rule of law
in America? ... How Sad.

This justifies real prison time for all people involved and all who had knowledge of it but did not report it immediately to the court. Not like 20 hours of community service, but like 5 years of prison minimum. This is blatant jury tampering and intimidation.
