Florida Reporter Goes Off on Tea Partier Criticizing the Media: Don’t ‘Listen to This Crap’

The subject of discussion at a recent West Boca Community Council meeting in Florida did not sit well with Sun Sentinel reporter Marci Shatzman. When one councilman began to strongly criticize the American press, Shatzman stood up and stormed out of the meeting she was covering. She urged the rest of the attendees to do the same. 

“Journalists have no respect for their own profession,” insisted guest speaker Andre Fladell after listing a series of grievances he had with the political media. “No respect for their country.”
