A WGN video producer was handcuffed and taken into custody by federal agents on Friday morning while documenting the arrest of a Latino man, and a legal analyst warned the move defied a court order.https://www.rawstory.com/chicago-ice-arrests/

@cdarwin I bet that journalist was surprised. They gave Republicans favorable coverage for decades. They enabled all the things that are happening now.They probably thought they would get favorable treatment from the authoritarians once they were in power. They seem to have forgotten what authoritarians typically do to journalists.While I weep for the loss of our rights, I feel zero sympathy for the people who enabled this problem.

@tofugolemWhy do you say that? WGN is not a trump outlet, unless you know something about that reporter this blame-the-victim is totally inappropriate. @cdarwin

@tofugolemWhy do you say that? WGN is not a trumpy outlet, news bias rating sites reviews when highly for factuality and minimum bias. unless you know something about that reporter this blame-the-victim is totally inappropriate. @cdarwin

@tomjennings @cdarwin I no longer keep track of which US media property does what, but all of them have been very pro-Republican in their spin.I'm willing to bet that WGN gave significant air time to taking about Joe Biden's mental decline, and none or very little talking about Trump's mental decline or warming voters about Project 2025.
