We have to talk about journalistic malfeasance that I’ve come across covering the #TamarackFire. Some abhorrent behavior being relayed to me.
Law enforcement telling me today a TV crew was in the way of an airdrop and prevented it from happening. And I witnessed a Photog get far too close to a firefighter working the containment line. He had to be yelled at. Shouldn’t have been in that position in the first place.
Earlier this week, the manager of one of the evacuation centers told me a reporter asked to use the restroom and was strictly told no cameras inside. Turns out he lied and took some photos of evacuees sleeping in their cots.
It shouldn’t be said, but that’s unacceptable behavior and extremely lacking in common sense. These instances shouldn’t happen and it gives us all a bad name. Be better.
