Goodman was arrested while questioning police about the unlawful detention of Kouddous and Salazar who were arrested while they carried out their journalistic duties in covering street demonstrations at the Republican National Convention.

During the demonstration in which the Democracy Now! team was arrested, law enforcement officers used pepper spray, rubber bullets, concussion grenades and excessive force against protesters and journalists. Several dozen demonstrators were also arrested during this action, including a photographer for the Associated Press.

  • Wonder what you'll say when it's YOUR TURN. Protest is a constitutional right. Journalists are supposed to be protected under the Constitution.

    Your labeling is not only offensive, it doesn't jive... (corporate? foundation? left/right? liberal/conservative? paradigm?) We are all Americans. Actions like this and words like yours serve only to divide us more deeply. If America falls, it won't fall because of Liberals or Conservatives. It will fall because we are no longer united.

  • We've got your back Amy!

  • amy goodman is a whore

  • A round from an AK-47 can penetrate anything they wear for protection! Shoot the PIGS!!

  • Next time, bring your guns with you & shoot the PIGS!!

  • does anyone ever think that the people that were destroying property and being violent were planted in there so the police could move in and arrest the specific people they needed to WAKE UP AMERICA

  • The Coincidence Theory:

    - that the towers, although a-symetrically damaged, fell straight down at the speed of gravity

    - that BBC reports WTC7 falling, a full half-hour before the event?

    - Israeli military dressed like Palestinians, dancing on a truck

    - NORAD was running a drill involving hijacked planes, at exactly the same time

    Not coincidence.

    I hope you get lots of money for your dusty jacket, you ghoulish creep.

  • America HAS fallen - your privately owned FED is struggling to keep the stock market afloat while the Gov't is fleeced by Haliburton & Wall Street.

    The problem is corporate propaganda is used to obscure the fact global elite exist, that global elite push policy, and different color ties are put on the puppets that we 'choose'.

    Billary vs Oh-so-bama, donkeys against elephants... all a big soap opera, and Amy is a STAR!

  • I walked directly past WTC7 not more than 5 minutes before it fell. How did I know it was safe to walk past? I didn't. Pure coincidence. I'll let you see my dust-covered jacket (which is in a sealed plastic bag) from my being there and reporting that horrendous day 7 years ago.

  • y DID some One mark this saying as SpaM?
