Dallas FOX channel gets their light turned off by an Occupier
Edited on Fri Nov-04-11 12:37 AM by rainbow4321
after FOX sent a news crew down to the camp at 5 am to do a live shot. The crew felt the need to turn on several huge flood lights on the entire camp---not just a light the faux reporter (I dont know which is faker, her reporting or her hair color) but the entire fucking camp.
At 1 1/2 minutes into the video you will see the pissed off Occupier do a LIGHTS OUT moment on the reporter and crew.

So now the faux news channel is using this moment to say "they don't like the media, they don't want the media attention, blah, blah".

The guy was good, he asked them "you want us showing up at YOUR home with these kind of lights at 5 am?"

In the end, the police were called out...neither the crew or the Occupier got in any official trouble and, unfortunately, the crew was allowed to still harrass the Occupiers with their lights.

The video icon to click on at the link is on the left hand side of the page...there are 2 icons/clips (or whatever you wanna call them), click on the one on the right where you see the guy confronting the crew.

1. At 5:00 AM? That's when zombie masks and mass shuffling towards the camera comes in handy.

3. They should have done a lights ON
As in, people should have those really bright million-candlepower handheld search lights to shine right in the cameras and the crew's faces.

Come to think of it, that might stop some bully cops, too...you can't brutalize people you can't see. ;)

And give them back their light.
