The media has manufactured its latest controversy about the Trump campaign by blowing a heated altercation out of proportion.
News outlets have run wild today with footage of a reporter for Time magazine being knocked to the ground by a member of the Secret Service at a Trump rally. The implication is that the GOP frontrunner is running an aggressive campaign that brings out the worst in people and has potential to turn violent at any moment.
But as other videos documenting the series of events leading up to that incident attest, if anybody was violent, it was the reporter. Footage shows Morris getting unnecessarily close to the Secret Service agent, brushing up against him as if he were trying to push him out of the way. He is also clearly heard to say “f*ck you” to the agent.
But that’s not what people are seeing on the news: what they’re seeing is Morris lying on the floor as the agent stands over him, and they most certainly did not see what he did next.

Should have been*
Ben Pomeroy, he wasn’t pushing his throat. He was using a pressure point to gain compliance. While it may momentarily hurt, it does not injure or interfere with breathing. It is common to employ this technique to the clavicular notch.
This is the most fucking misleading garbage I’ve seen today. He grabbed the agent after getting chokeslammed to demonstrate how he grabbed him. Full footage shows him facing away from the agent and daring to step out of the ‘press box’ that trump had cordoned off to stifle free press. Reporter was yoked back violently, had words with the agent who laid hands on him, and then got chokeslammed for words. Agent is %1000 in the wrong in this specific instance. Nice try with the misleading language and picture tho, you deceiptful pricks should be ashamed.
This is Photoshop that’s not how it happened, Come on how gullible can you be people.
Ernie Combs, the press pass does not outweigh the safety of the subject being protected by secret service.
Don’t believe me? Get a press pass and push your way through secret service agents trying to get to the president and let me know the results.
This is phony…..
But go ahead and believe what you want
Lesson learned! Don’t mess with a reporter, esp when he’s on the hunt for something to lie about!
Imagine that
The reporter was the victim.
I would have had to break his wrist.
