(1/3) As a journalist, I went to cover the #convoyprotest outside #Hamont city hall, with an open-mind. I went to interview people and hear their side. What I got was a slew of verbal harassment; I was called a 'c**t', was screamed at (2 inches from my face)...
(2/3)...I was taunted, jeered at, and was told I was a puppet for Trudeau. All I wanted, was to get their side. Out of about 200 people, one person, took the time to rationally and respectfully explain his stance.
(3/3) My question to all the haters of the 'mainstream media': how do you expect us to share your side when all you do is shout abhorrent expletives at us? To my colleagues around the country today covering this, please stay safe, and I hope you find kinder folk than I did today.
