Protesting Trump Supporters 'Berate' and 'Practically Chase' TV Reporter [View all]

Mean-spirited, Trump-supporting reopen protestors took out their frustrations on a local reporter who was covering their rally.

Kevin Vesey, a TV reporter for News 12 Long Island, withstood verbal barbs and was “practically chased” by several angry rally-goers during a Thursday protest in the Commack area of Long Island, N.Y.

Vesey first shared a portion of a video on Twitter that showed him being consistently harassed by protesters yelling, “You shouldn’t be here,” and “You are the enemy of the people.”

Vesey wrote about how vehement the protesters were and that he was only doing his job: “The level of anger directed at the media from these protestors was alarming. As always, I will tell a fair and unbiased story today.”
