35. Go to CNN isn't an answer because you don't want it to be an answer.

You've never watched the video on CNN because for some reason you don't want too. If your on DU then CNN.com is just a click away. I've now TOLD you 2-3 times they were where they were BEFORE the State Police moved toward them and they were at a point they were TOLD they could be. GET IT?? They weren't violating jack shit.

Credentials means that CNN could be doing video on that street,they are the PRESS not just random individuals. They were on that street before the State police came up behind them--again that's in the video. When they were surrounded by State cops because of other activity (CNN had their back to them) the reporter showed him his credentials and said where they were was where they were TOLD they could be. So...they simply asked those JACK BOOTS where they NOW wanted them.

They would have moved anywhere but were instead arrested. You act like they were doing something wrong by reporting FACTS, but that's why Trump hates CNN. But you already knew that.
