Jake Tapper breaks the narrative: "At least two journalists were attacked by antifa."
Since the Charlottesville violence, many cowards and liars in the media, and also sadly many politicians, have refused to condemn or even acknowledge the violence from antifa. President Trump was one of the few with the courage to speak out against ALL violence, including far left antifa violence.
Now even Jake Tapper, who doesn't hide his anti-Trump bias, has also acknowledged antifa violence in a series of tweets. Tapper begins by highlighting statements by journalist Taylor Lorenz who was a victim of antifa violence:
"At least two journalists in Charlottesville were assaulted by people protesting the Klan/Nazi/alt-right rally. Taylor is one:
Taylor Lorenz: "The video cuts off at the end because some asshole came over and punched me in the face and kicked my phone for recording (I said I was press)."
The alleged assailant of the journalist was charged.
Taylor Lorenz: "Turns out the guy who punched me in the face for recording after the incident already had a warrant out for his arrest. So he's being held."
Tapper then highlights alt-left antifa violence against a CBS photojournalist:
A photojournalist with the Richmond CBS station also was assaulted while filming a counterprotest. He needed medical attention.
A source at the station says he's been out for three days with a concussion.
CBS6 Richmond: "Our photojournalist reported back that he got 4 staples after a protestor hit him in the head."
Tapper continues:
Antifa posted this on facebook about the assault which a source at the station says is full of out-and-out lies.
These are unprovoked assaults on journalists doing their jobs -- by those marching *against* the hateful racists.
Disgusting.
-fin-"
It's apparent that some of Tapper's language seems designed to smear all right-leaning protesters with the same brush. However, Tapper at least refuses to stick his head in the sand like many other reporters and politicians who have turned a blind eye to antifa violence and in some cases even supported antifa violence.
This will likely be only the start. As we have seen in recent weeks with the fake Russian hacking story, once the truth begins to get out, more and more journalists finally admit the truth to avoid being caught out and totally embarrassed by clinging to a lie. The same thing could well be about to happen with antifa.
As aware citizens share the many examples of antifa violence on facebook, twitter and other social media, more and more people are beginning to discover the truth. Citizens who were previously 'unaware and compliant' are beginning to see antifa for what they really are. Violent evil thugs who see violence as acceptable against anyone whose opinion doesn't align 100% with their own, and even in many cases against innocent bystanders. Let's not forget, antifa even attempted to get a 'Feed The Homeless' rally shut down because it was organized by Trump supporters! That is how low antifa will stoop, and how poisoned their minds have become.
The aware right have long known of the danger that antifa pose. However, to the brainwashed leftist sheep who get their 'news' from the truth-censoring narrative-controlling MSM, news that antifa are violent thugs will come as something of a shock. But the evidence is there for all to see, and has been for many months. The two recent violent attacks by antifa against journalists were just the latest in a long list of violence carried out by antifa.
Once again, President Trump condemned ALL violence by ALL extremists. Here's a recent quote from President Trump:
"As I have said many times before: No matter the color of our skin, we all live under the same laws, we all salute the same great flag, and we are all made by the same almighty God. We must love each other, show affection for each other, and unite together in condemnation of hatred, bigotry, and violence. We must rediscover the bonds of love and loyalty that bring us together as Americans."
Many disgusting politicians and reporters have refused to condemn hatred and violence from all sides. They pick and choose. They condemn some violence, but turn a blind eye to others. In the worst cases, some politicians even spoke out in support of antifa violence and hatred.
Over the coming weeks, the public will become increasingly aware of the long list of antifa violence which the corrupt media have done their best to hide from them. Awareness will grow. And as this awareness grows, the public will remember those disgusting politicians and reporters who defended antifa violence. They will also remember the politicians and reporters who had the courage to speak out against antifa violence.
This will ultimately prove to be another nail in the coffin of the corrupt media, and another nail in the coffin for cowardly politicians who are afraid to speak the truth.

The twitter chain in full. |

It's sad that journalists are only now finally reporting on antifa violence now that they themselves have found themselves victims of antifa violence.
