Reporter Arrested For Asking Giuliani Tough Questions

 

 

UPDATE: Here is video of the event in question. Matt

Lepacek who is a reporter for Infowars.Com and a

member of We Are Change had his Constitutional first

amendment rights clearly violated. So much for free

press. We are now living in the fourth reich.

 

 

 

 

 

The first amendment is under serious attack following

an incident that took place at the GOP presidential

debates up here in New Hampshire. Matt Lepacek a

member of the activist/alternative media group We Are

Change was arrested for simply attempting to question

Rudy Giuliani about different issues including the

fact that he previously lied to the We Are Change

group about his involvement in the events of 9/11.

This event shows that we no longer have freedom of

speech or freedom of press in this country.

 

Even though Mr. Lapecek was unable to specifically

question Giuliani he was able to pepper one of

Giuliani's staff members with hard questions. Despite

asking these questions in a respectful manner, Mr.

Lepacek was escorted out of the building even though

he was asking legitimate questions and had press

credentials issued to him by the debate organizers.

Mr. Lepacek protested his removal from the post-debate

press area and demanded to know from police officers

why his Constitutional rights were being violated. He

attempted to re-enter the building and was

subsequently arrested and charged with criminal

trespassing for merely exercising his Constitutional

rights. What made this even crazier was the fact that

most of this was broadcast via a live web camera feed

on the We Are Change web site. Hundreds of people

witnessed Mr. Lepacek be arrested by the police

officers even after he informed them that video of the

events were being broadcast live on the Internet.

 

It would be one thing if he intentionally created a

disruption during the debate itself or in the

post-debate press area but he did nothing of the sort.

All he wanted to do was ask Giuliani and other

candidates the tough questions that the establishment

media is afraid and unwilling to ask. What is really

ridiculous is that he didn't even get a chance to

question Giuliani and yet he was still escorted out of

the building. Do we really have a free press if

certain members of the press are selectively escorted

away from political figures? We clearly have a

situation where the establishment press is a lapdog

for the government. A free press that is a watchdog of

the government is one of the keys in having a free and

open society. It appears clear from Lepacek's arrest

that we have neither a free or open society.

 

Details are still sketchy on these events, but I

witnessed a good portion of the web feed by watching

the live video feed in the group's RV at the debate. I

also got information from the other We Are Change

members and everything indicates that this is an

extremely disturbing event. His removal from the

building was unjustified and his arrest for criminal

trespassing was a clear violation of his

Constitutional rights.

 

Welcome to Nazi America. Judging from the early

reports of this event, it appears as if we no longer

have a free press in this country. We'll provide an

update on this event tomorrow as more details come

available.
