#BREAKING: After interviewing @PeteButtigieg supporters outside without issue, 1 of his staffers came up to my cameraman (an African American male) and ripped off his press credential saying “I don’t think you’re supposed to have credentials.”https://twitter.com/JordanChariton/status/1226551996548812800 …

Pete Buttigieg owes my cameraman Jamal Jones an apology—his staffer put his hands on him and removed his press badge without saying a word to him. IMPORTANT: we had media credentials for the event and checked in at press desk.

For those who don’t know: after I went to South Bend for

We got in today only bc a fellow journalist forwarded me his campaign emails where we could apply (that they stopped sending us). In 5 years of reporting in-the -field, not once have I had campaign staff follow me inside and outside NOR touch me or my cameraman. This is NOT how..

@StatusCoup with more. If@PeteButtigieg wants to clear this up, I’m ready to do an interview as soon as he apologizes to Jamal.Show this thread -

Dear Jordan you got the press card back? This is just wrong. Very intimidating.
