Reminds me of the weather reporter who appeared to be struggling against hurricane force winds to even stand up, and then some guys casually stroll by, somehow impervious to raging storm. lol.
If I were witnessing these kinds of media hijinks I would like to do that. Maybe say hey to the reporter, just going to the store to get a snack, don't hurt yourself, and stroll away.
My friend used to work at a hotel where lots of media people would stay for certain events, and no one could stand them. The employees would rather deal with actual celebrities than reporters.
" struggling against hurricane force winds"
The video came out showing the fan that had been set up as a prop.

Yep. we can trust the media!
There was this really bizarre looking CNN reporting set during the Gulf War and it looked like acting. Even at the time viewers were confused because it seemed like an SNL skit, while in such a dangerous situation.
These "news" stations pull out the drama to outcompete each other but it is embarrassing when they go too far.
Maybe the reporters being forced to be so biased and dramatic just become programmed like robots. So they end up being haunted by being around others who don't agree with them politically. It sounds like cult stuff. No normal person should be damaged by being at a dinner with people who voted differently. And this isn't the only media person who has admitted this, some were crying right on camera when Trump won in 2016. At least at that moment they were being real.
So, you're a Christian who won't vote for Trump, but you'll support the people who believe in abortion until the point of birth, who believe in having biological men compete against biological women on competitive school sports teams, who believe in gender reassignment surgeries on young children? Trump may be a jerk, but he is much better than anything that the Democrats offer.
Yes, I am a Christian.
I don't think either party is perfect and some of the points you mention I agree are negatives of Democrats. However, I also think Democrats do a lot of good with a stronger social safety net, the environment, and etc.
My point in the post that you responded to, is that we should not attack one another or take each other's humanity away.
How weak minded are these types? I have friends and family that HATE Trump with a passion, I like him, but somehow we all get along just fine.
This reminds me of a recent video clip that I saw on social media. There was a sign that read, have a date with a Miss Universe. A table was set up on the sidewalk where many took a seat to chat with the pretty young woman. Everything was great and people were having fun until they found out she represented Israel. There were some that said they were uncomfortable with that and left.
It's so dumb.
People are people and just because they like Trump it doesn't make them a bad person but too many on the Left think so.
That’s becoming a rarer thing these days so I commend you and your family. While I’m not the one to break contact over petty political differences (and even if you don’t view them as petty, I’m of the mindset that we still have to live next to, go to school with, work with, etc., people with suffering views from us), the level of insanity that some people have on this issue (in my experience it’s overwhelmingly leftists guilty of this today) is mind-boggling. It makes me very weary of who I openly discuss politics with.
"'The dinner continues to haunt me,' the ex-CNN reporter wrote on social media"
"Ex-CNN reporter Michelle Kosinski wrote in a Sunday social media post that she was surprised by how "normal" a group of "closeted" Trump supporters seemed at a dinner she attended, which she said continues to "haunt" her.
"All were well-educated and successful in careers. They seemed great! On the surface. For like an hour. But slowly, over a few drinks, they began to let slip their true MAGA natures," Kosinski wrote. "
"This dinner continues to haunt me. They all seemed so... normal..."
If she were a real reporter she would look for pods.
