journalist John Ziegler was arrested for trying to ask questions at an event where Katie Couric of CBS News received an award for her interview with Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin last fall.
First of all, if Ziegler is a journalist than I'm a neurosurgeon. An obnoxious prick with a video camera doth not a journalist make.
Second, he was on private property and admits, "I was told that only media outlets that had been invited by the award winners could be inside this event."
So I'm confused as to why he believes he ought to be allowed on the premises. Get on the guestlist, fucko -- or go home.
The only good thing to come out of this nothingburger is the video of this ridiculously stupid man, which HuffPo says
doesn't so much depict a stoic documentarian heroically facing authority figures as it does a man who seems eager to restage the "Don't tase me, bro!" video, by laughing maniacally, flopping around, and acting as if he is in the throes of a particularly thunderous bowel movement.
Perfect.
