A good number of reporters are simply emo fags who want an occupation where everybody likes and respects them (ie: News Anchor). Thus their fragile ego is shattered when they realize that they aren't untouchable.
If I were that cop, I'd shove her extra for slapping me.

I'll give you a hint: it's not the LAPD or the officers involved.
In addition to the standard department review after an incident, they will also receive an internal affairs review, and a special FBI investigation.
Three federal lawsuits have been filed so far, and that number is expected to rise (as is the number injured from the incident).
The most damning piece of evidence: the Mayor has already denounced the incident as "wrong", placing guilt before the official investigations are even completed.
The score looks like:
Reporter shooting video: 1
LAPD: 0

Who was beat? They were refusing to obey an order to move and the cops pushed them along. I never saw a single strike. Just pushing.
Had the cops hit them, they would be wrong. But in this case the cops merely were trying to clear the area and pushed them along. It's not the cop's fault they were fighting back and falling down intentionally.
Some of you really need to spend time as a cop. What else can they do when people do not follow orders to clear an area? Beg? Plead? Cry?
Give me a break.

You need to read through the whole thread:

The camera man was beaten with batons for no reason and the reporter was trying to save him but they beat and pushed her away too.
edit: add to the fact that that what they did was constitutionally questionable. They should have detained the few men who were causing trouble... it's not like there was a riot, but they went into storm trooper mode moved down the street to the peaceful protestors and started shooting them with rubber bullets and beating them with batons. Stop calling yourself a libertarian please.

No, beating a camera man with batons = beating up
