Go Home!’: DC Crowd Drowns Out CNN Reporter During Live Report

CNN Capitol Hill correspondent Lisa Desjardins does a live report from the National Mall in Washington on the day of a huge Taxpayer March or "tea party protest" against the government.

At the start of the interview, anchor Fredricka Whitfield "forewarns" the audience that there might be some yelling during the report.

Desjardins struggles to get through the interview in front of chants of "tell the truth" and "go home, CNN".

After Whitfield asks Desjardins to "give it one more shot," the tea partyers start chanting Glenn Beck's name, lol.

The reporter then attempts to ask the protesters a question: "What do you think of Congressman Joe Wilson?" The crowd reacts with applause, then starts chanting, "Way to go, Joe."

Forgive me if I don't understand the theory...Why again is it a good tactic to try to drown out anything you don't want to hear ala disruptions at town hall meetings about health care reform? It makes it impossible to hear either side clearly and makes you look rude and insecure. I just don't get it. Are you afraid to hear differing opinions?
The CNN reporter was attempting to cover your event and you were telling to to go home? Does this mean you only want to talk to your base or that you don't want to expand it?

CNN & the ultra liberal media has tried to make these good folks out to be 'crazies', Nazi's, etc, etc. I am glad they drowned out the CNN reporter. The bias reporting from CNN & PMSNBC has been blatent and the people know it ( That's why Fox News' ratings are better than both of those 'networks combined)!!!
