"Why are you yelling?” the reporter asked as Trump’s senior adviser refused to clarify the source of information he was spreading about Venezuela’s crime rate.
Trump senior adviser Stephen Miller had an on-camera meltdown after being asked by a journalist to back up questionable claims he was making about Venezuela’s crime rate, video of the episode posted to social media shows.
The four-minute video shows an emotional Miller yelling at NTN24 reporter José María del Pino on Tuesday after del Pino questioned Miller over his claims that Venezuela has become safer than the United States because its convicts are now all in the U.S.
Miller also repeated a since-debunked story that a Venezuelan gang has taken over Colorado apartment complexes.
Oh fuck, was that a journalist actually doing his job?
I almost forgot what that looks like.
Amazing to see what happens when someone sticks to a line of questioning and doesn’t just move on
And you’ll probably never see that journalist have that kind of access (amongst conservatives) ever again.
If on,y they all did it. Then the conservatives would either get no coverage or have to face actual questions.
I…what? I’ve never seen this happen, and a lot of recent events have me questioning my ability to tell waking from dreaming…
Hard to know if “journalism” exist at all anymore… this could be some random food blogger who got a media pass and accidentally asked a good question… you wouldn’t be able to know the difference.
It exists, you just don’t see it much in the US where corporations run the show.
