Ok, so I've been getting public and private criticism on my retweet calling for people labeling themselves as Press not to act as protesters It's absolutely true that the feds need no excuse to brutalize press. And that is a HUGE PR win for ushttps://twitter.com/WasserL/status/1287100497019768832 …
Rules of warfare dictate that press and legal observers should be left alone. When Trump's little army violates that? It pisses off the people whose job it is to report the news and that is a GIFT from GOD. It's extremely good when your enemy pisses off the press
So what happens if people start dressing up like press and doing protester shit? Well, the feds will use it to justify the shit they're doing anyway and we'll lose all that good PR Also, it will piss off the press and this will result in worse coverage. It just will
Some seem to see the protests as a physical battle. Wrong. It's a battle for public opinion. You want abolition? The people have to support abolition. Protests are effective in exact ratio to how much they persuade So don't impersonate press. Fucking do not. Please and thank you
Folx, you can wear your press hat and protester hats. Just don't wear them at the same time!
Well said, I think for the new folks who are passionate about their roles as journalists this is a worthwhile read.https://www.spj.org/ethicscode.asp
