Just watched someone with 6 “PRESS” stickers/badges fight some feds, so I’m gonna say this again: Press are not protesters. Please, please do not engage in any kind of protesting behavior, ESPECIALLY aggressive behavior towards law enforcement, while wearing press stuff. (1/2)

If protesters pretend to be press, it doesn’t keep protesters safer. What it does is jeopardize the safety of press. Because if one “press” attacks an officer, the officers have an excuse to see all journalists as a threat. If you value having press at protests, PLEASE stop this

Replying to @tuckwoodstock @1misanthrophile
Have the police needed an excuse to see the press as the enemy now?
