For the Cause - Linda -------------------------------- Date sent: Mon, 20 Mar 2000 08:33:05 -0500 From: Lee Delclef <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: NewsMax.com: Inside Cover Story To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff Sunday March 19, 2000; 11:31 AM Media Silent on St. Pat's Day Assault by Hillary's Goons It was the ugliest public incident in the entire seven-plus year history of the Clinton administration; certainly ugly enough to fatally wound any candidate's bid for higher office. But 48 hours after United States Senate candidate Hillary Clinton's security entourage attacked at least six reporters during New York City's St. Patrick's Day parade -- throwing some out of the way, pushing others to the ground -- not a single mainstream media outlet has reported the assaults. As crowds jeered the first lady with raucous chants of "Go Back to Arkansas" and "Where's Monica?" her bodyguards swung into action, according to one radio reporter who described the scene just hours after it happened: "The Secret Service just lost their minds," reported WABC Radio Network's Glen Shuck to local New York talk jock Sean Hannity's drivetime audience. "Agents literally were pushing press to the ground. I mean, they just started pushing and shoving; female camera people five feet tall were getting thrown to the ground, cameras flying." (See below: Hillary's Secret Service Agents Rough Up Reporters as St. Pat's Day Crowd Boos) Though Shuck was one of six reporters roughed up by the first lady's security detail, he was the only one who was assaulted and went public with the news. Newsmax.com has been unable to learn the identity of the female camera operator attacked by Clinton's goons -- nor the whereabouts of whatever film she shot. Though local WABC newsman George Weber covered the Secret Service violence at every newsbreak -- at one point even contrasting their use of force with Mrs. Clinton's own stand against police brutality -- none of Shuck's account made it to his own network's 6:00pm report. ABC News failed to mention the assault of their own reporter -- even on their own website. Attempts to reach Shuck late Friday were unsuccessful. Some observers suggested that Mrs. Clinton's Secret Service detail had become nervous as the media swarmed the candidate at the outset of the parade. But in fact, they reacted violently at several points along the parade route, Shuck said. The notion that Mrs. Clinton's bodyguards were acting out of concerns for her physical safety was further undermined by a videotape shot by a local CBS News camera crew. As boos and jeers erupted from the St. Patrick's Day crowd, film showed one of Hillary's bodyguards as he raised his hand in an attempt to cover CBS's camera lens. CBS's on-the-scene reporter complained, "What could be classified about this? Who does she think she is?" Mrs. Clinton, who has made no secret of her hatred for reporters, frequently looked nervous and uncomfortable as she marched down New York's Fifth Avenue, observers say. Though CBS's local news affilliate carried tape of the Secret Service attempt to censor the booing crowd during both their 6 p.m. and 11 p.m. broadcasts, they made no mention of reporters being assaulted. The Clintons' relationship with rank and file Secret Service is known to be strained. But several past incidents suggest that Mrs. Clinton may have surrounded herself with handpicked G-men who are willing to exceed the bounds of normal Secret Service protection. During a 1996 fund-raising swing through Arizona, local reporters complained that Mrs. Clinton's security detail was interfering with press coverage that posed no physical risk whatsoever to the first lady. "Reporters at the Monday afternoon speech were kept at arm's length from the first lady by Secret Service agents, who warned the press not to yell out questions," reported The Arizona Republic at the time. Hours earlier, the Supreme Court had rejected a White House bid to keep some of Mrs. Clinton's Whitewater records sealed. Incensed by the abuse of both the presidential security detail and the First Amendment, Arizona Rep. Matt Salmon complained to the Washington Times, "It appears (the president) has targeted the Secret Service to silence his critics. The Secret Service is paid to protect the president and his family from physical harm, not to protect them from tough questions." In January, minutes before Mrs. Clinton made her much publicized appearance on David Letterman's "Late Show," CBS staffers used threats of Secret Service retribution to discourage heckling. "Put your politics aside," the crowd was told, according to one source present. "This is a comedy show -- no booing, no shouting. And if you don't listen to us you can talk to the Secret Service." In 1998, violence was visited on White House critics when Philadelphia union members wearing "Teamsters for Clinton" T-shirts beat-up protestors who marched outside a fund-raising dinner attended by the president. Though reports of the Philadelphia assaults ricocheted across the Internet and talk radio within hours, the reaction of the mainstream press mirrored its cover-up of Friday's St. Patrick's Day violence, with only Fox News Channel reporting the Teamsters attack. On Friday, something very dangerous to the democratic process took place. People whose job it is to report the news were not only physically assaulted by government agents working for the Clintons, those same people have been silenced by their media bosses. ----------------- With Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff Friday March 17, 2000; 3:10 PM EST Hillary's Secret Service Agents Rough Up Reporters as St. Pat's Crowd Boos Secret Service agents protecting first lady Hillary Clinton roughed up several reporters along the route of New York City's St. Patrick's Day parade, WABC Radio reported Friday afternoon. To make matters worse, the United States Senate candidate was booed at several points along the Fifth Avenue parade route. A crowd of holiday revelers gathered at St. Patrick's Cathedral shouted "Go back to Arkansas" and "Find your own state." "Secret Service agents literally are pushing press to the ground," reported WABC's Glenn Shuck. "They get back up again. Mrs. Clinton stops to shake hands again along the route and she's mobbed again by Secret Service." According to Shuck, Mrs. Clinton's security got rough with reporters at several points along the parade route. "At one point one (Secret Service agent) grabbed me on my right side with his hands, and kind of grabbed my coat to hold me back, definitely forcefully," Shuck told afternoon drivetime talk show host Sean Hannity. "The Secret Service just lost their minds, in my opinion," said Shuck. "I mean they just started pushing and shoving; female camera people five feet tall were getting thrown to the ground, cameras flying. Myself, I was grabbed by the shoulder, I was thrown back over. I think somebody from Channel 11 landed on my back. From that point it really didn't get any better." Minutes after Shuck's interview with Hannity, WABC's in-studio reporter George Webber announced, "Hillary Clinton's Secret Service agents today roughed up several members of the news media trying to cover the first lady's visit to the St. Patrick's Day parade. At least six reporters, including WABC's Glen Shuck, were pushed and tossed to the ground as they tried to get quotes from Mrs. Clinton." The first lady's reaction: "I love being a New Yorker. And this is the first time I've been able to march in this parade as a New Yorker. I could not be happier to be here." ----------- end ------------------ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ T H E I N T E R N E T B R I G A D E Linda Muller - WebMaster Post Office Box 650266, Potomac Falls, Virginia 20165 Email: http://www.buchanan.org/form-contact.html Web: http://www.buchanan.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Have You O F F I C I A L L Y E N L I S T E D Yet? http://www.buchanan.org/form-enlistment.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The One and Only B R I G A D E Email List!
