Natasha Loder, Economist Journalist, Detained At Mitt Romney Event: Reports


A reporter for the Economist was handcuffed by Secret Service agents at Mitt Romney's campaign victory rally during the Michigan primary on Tuesday, according to multiple reports. Some reports said that the journalist was arrested.

Chad Livengood, a reporter at the Lansing bureau of the Detroit News, tweeted that Natasha Loder, a Midwest reporter for the magazine, was arrested for sitting in a doorway at the crowded event, which reporters were being blocked from entering.
