There’s an interesting version of this story to be written, but one thing it fails to grapple with is that these protest/riot media pods are primarily driven by safety concerns. Not everyone in these groups share the same values and ethics. theintercept.com/2021/05/13/rio…
You really can’t lump the work of a reality-based reporter like @ShelbyTalcott in with some of these other clowns who willfully deceive viewers and describe the Capitol attackers as “patriots.” 
The description of that Tucker clip undersells it, I think. She drew a firm line between protesters and opportunistic looters in a different part of the city who took advantage of the situation. Don’t imagine that's the red meat that Tucker wanted!

Think it’s best to assess the work of reporters individually rather than lump them in with others they link up with for safety. I certainly wouldn’t want to be judged by the prior or current political views of one particular media figure I worked alongside in Ferguson.
