Threats to press during convoy protests a wake-up call, experts say

In a video from Ottawa, a broadcaster stares at the camera in silence as protesters surround him and scream expletives, calling him a liar and bellowing “freedom.”

Near the U.S. border in Surrey, B.C., a cameraman’s equipment is shoved off his shoulder and two men spit on him. A demonstrator follows another journalist closely, yelling that he is a “disgusting, filthy human being,” while police escort the reporter through a jeering crowd.

Experts and advocates say the treatment of journalists, captured in many cases on video, during recent protests against public health measures should be a wake-up call.


Threats of violence and general feelings of ill-will toward the media? I wonder why?

Canada’s government paid media is the mouthpiece of the Trudeau regime.

Their job is to support the ruling permanent political class by providing propaganda on demand like trained seals.
