Andrew O'Reilly / Fox News: White House downplays Minnesota claims of far-right role in riots, in dispute over who's fueling violence

David Fahrenthold / @fahrenthold: NEW: Police turned more aggressive against protestors last night — and bystanders, and journalists — with more violent tactics that were meant to restore order.

ZeRo / @zerowondering: This is one of the worst things I've seen. A man who was doing his job to report the news is arrested for absolutely no reason despite being peaceful and compliant. Police enforcement is supposed to be there for the people, not terrorize them. https://twitter.com/...
Barry Malone / @malonebarry: The ground has been firmly laid over the last few years for US security forces to attack journalists.

Empress Rocka / @therealbamfhbic: Attacking the Free Press is a sure sign you know what you're doing isn't right.

Ron Fournier / @ron_fournier: If the First Amendment doesn't apply to FOX News, it doesn't belong to you. Knock off the violence because: 1. It's wrong and repugnant 2. It's what Trump needs to get re-elected. https://twitter.com/...
Shannon Bream / @shannonbream: I couldn't be more thankful my colleagues are safe. These guys are tough, but they are also my friends. https://www.foxnews.com/...
Kaili Joy Gray / @kailijoy: Trump calls the press the enemy of the people. Guess Fox isn't exempt. https://twitter.com/...
Bryan Llenas / @bryanllenas: This is outrageous, dangerous and should be condemned by all. No member of the press should be targeted and violently attack by a mob for doing their jobs. Grateful colleagues @LelandVittert and crew are ok. https://www.foxnews.com/...
Kaitlan Collins / @kaitlancollins: “Vittert and the crew were punched and hit with projectiles as they fled, and a Fox News camera was broken when a member of the mob tried to grab it.” https://www.foxnews.com/...
Jeremy Diamond / @jdiamond1: Reporters need to be allowed to do their jobs. This is unacceptable. https://www.foxnews.com/...

Jeremy Fuster / The Wrap: Journalists Targeted at Protests by Police, Hit With Rubber Bullet and Tear Gas

Wesley / @wesleylowery: The difficulty in these moments is it's impossible to say objectively true, historically neutral things grounded in research, reporting & expertise without a large swath of ppl (including journalists) interpreting them as “political opinions” because so few have done the reading

Louise Ridley / @louiseridley: Impossible as a journalist not to be a little alarmed by “a global shift away from humans”. Thinking of those losing jobs. It will be interesting to see how this works.
