Reporter arrested while covering pro-Palestinian protest outside Tucson Raytheon office

Anonymous
More than two dozen people were detained Thursday at a pro-Palestinian demonstration outside a Raytheon office in Arizona, including a local reporter who was covering the event. The Arizona Republic reports that KJZZ's Alisa Reznick was arrested by a deputy from the Pima County Sheriff's Department outside a University of Arizona satellite campus that houses the defense contractor, despite the fact that she sported clearly visible media credentials, carried reporting gear, and informed the arresting officer that she was a journalist. "I'm a reporter," Reznick can be heard telling the deputy in a video of the incident posted to YouTube, per the Tucson Sentinel, to which he replies: "You're under arrest."

Well looks like it is illegal to hold a pro Palestinian rally and reporters who cover it will be arrested. Chilling

They were all criminally trespassing on private property and were asked to leave repeatedly and refused. The right to protest does not extend to trespassing.

If we were in Israel they would just shoot the reporter.

Something tells me that that officer is going to be in trouble for a violation of the Amendment to the Constitution. I'm sure that the TV studio that employs that reporter is going to be having words or legal actions against the police department over this. The police officer can ask her to leave the premises, but cannot arrest her.

You can absolutely be arrested for trespassing. 1A has nothing to do with it.

Is it impossible to talk about the problem with the reporter without getting into a “well I support..” No one cares who you support. Give it a f-n rest already.

If you’re an American, you should support a free press.

She was walking to her car when she was arrested. How is that not leaving?
