        It is crystal clear from the video that reporter @OmarJimenez was politely offering to move wherever the police wanted him to go. Instead they put him in handcuffs. Outrageous.

        Um, Josh Campbell's CNN crew was also there, but they weren't arrested. Why?

        The irony, they arrest the Black the CNN reporter on live TV yet the Officer that killed George Floyd hasn't been arrested. SMDH

        ...also, Josh Campbell was there with another CNN crew, who were treated politely, and not arrested. Now why would that be?
