WATCH THE VIDEOhttp://crooksandliars.com/2015/04/video-baltimore-protester-tells-geraldo (for video)
Geraldo Rivera got a dose of truth Tuesday night when he went to report on Baltimore and was confronted by a group of protesters.
At about 50 seconds in, he's confronted by a very articulate young man, who tells him exactly why he is unwelcome.
As he got in front of the camera, the young protester addressed Rivera directly. "I want you and Fox News to get out of Baltimore City, because you're not here reporting about the boarded up homes and the homeless people under MLK. You're not reporting about the poverty levels up and down North Avenue."
He wasn't finished either. He went on to point out that Fox News wasn't there when they peacefully marched from one side of the city to the other two years ago and then he wrapped all of that in truth...

(42,641 posts)Perhaps he is afraid because he is surrounded by articulate young people who see through his nonsense. He is clearly just there for some violence, but like many media personalities he is unable to go "off script" and really say anything sensible when he is confronted with some truth.
That is what happens when people like him, people who live in a bubble surrounded by other rich people, interact with the real US.

(50,983 posts)They constantly spew right wing propaganda which is inherently dishonest and inflammatory.
Lying Fox News should just cease to exist. Lying Fox News is a blight on the nation fully as destructive as Rush Limbaugh and the rest of the dishonest hate mongers.
Geraldo Rivera is a cheap sellout. A voice of dishonesty and racism.
