1. Kasie Hunt: can't see the forest...

for the 48,000 trees. She's "concerned" it might be Sanders' swan song. It should be hers.

[Segami]

2. Oh Katie.....we know your miserable covering the Bernie campaign....

...you really want to be schmoozing with the 'champagne' candidate......


btw,...one of the Tweets cracked me up....

"....hey, don't Bogart that joint man!..."

[ScreamingMeemie]

3. I don't see Bernie anywhere in that picture.

Oy. Oy. Oy.

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Though I am getting a case of lens envy

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Right?

[nadinbrzezinski]

12. Hey that is easily a 400 or higher Cannon lens

Trust me, get photogs together, and we start talking shop. We did the other day at the Cruz rally in town. I hear that Sony bodies are magnificent for color and crispness. Yup, a few campaign staffers were a tad confused.

I will have to put my cents away for a NICE Nikon something-500 lens. I was having issues with the 70-300 at the Sanders Rally. Secret Service, that is where they put us. The latter was what we could afford as well.

After that though I struck a nice talk with a party big whig, and learned more than I already knew of the Republican primary mechanics. I don't mind that, makes my job far, far, far easier.

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. I'm a freelance writer, and I write the lens attachments for two major camera suppliers.

I am well-versed in the price range and abilities. That could easily be even higher than that if it came out this year. The new G-Masters from Sony are outrageous. I almost wanted to charge more for the delivery.

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. Yup

now here is the real crime. Obviously guy does not pay for his gear. I just went and bought a new lens cover. Yeah, yeah we put filters but still. Confession time, hubby gets a tad shoddy about that at times. And when we lose them, which happens, he is not too timely about replacing them. Well, one of my fellow photogs brought his lenses in what looked like a gym bag... (cringe) and then he left the back cover of the lens without a lens cap.

Yup, that became a point of conversation with a bunch of photogs.

I still cringe.

[Segami]

8. Bernie is on stage far away over that person's shoulder....

She is trying to invent a negative Bernie rally headline......some reporting that is....

[ScreamingMeemie]

10. I know... I was just being a little silly.

I fall flat late at night, when I should be in bed. Kasie's an ass.

[nadinbrzezinski]

4. Not the media we all grew up with

not one bit.

They did the same to Occupy by the way.

[Peregrine Took]

6. Maybe some day ole K.C. will be re- assigned to the super exciting

Kasich campaign!

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. I added my two cents

nadinbrzezinski ‏@nadinbrzezinski now
@kasie @BernieSanders That is what you noticed? Really? Not the 48K people present? Hey I noticed the 13K in San Diego

[nadinbrzezinski]

13. This "reporting" annoys me

at a professional level .

[SHRED]

22. I was in San Diego also!

Nice crowd eh?

[nadinbrzezinski]

23. Next day I was dying...

I wrote a piece of it at RSD...

https://reportingsandiego.com/2016/03/23/13000-san-diegans-came-to-hear-senator-bernie-sanders/

And yes, I was at the Cruz rally as well

https://reportingsandiego.com/2016/04/12/2000-san-diegans-attend-cruz-rally/

Both have the full speeches. IF we have more, I will try to be there and yes. GET THE FULL SPEECH, unless we get equipment failure

[SHRED]

25. Nice

I was right in front of the press cameras.
I made the new 8.

Blueish shirt and cap. Tall guy...right down the middle.

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. Hi!!!!!

I might have gotten a photo of your back

[SHRED]

31. That is a Crazy Shirt I was wearing

The brand....Seaport Village.

Love it there...I hope they don't squash it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

33. Will have to look though the 700 or so photos.

If I find it, will let you know, PROOF

[SHRED]

36. Looking forward

[nadinbrzezinski]

38. Darker blue Tshirt?

Because that is what matches... and alas avoided my lens otherwise. Good job

[SHRED]

42. more of a turquoise

And a ball cap. Aztecs ball cap.

[nadinbrzezinski]

47. Got it. Before I even started to go over the photos from the Fight for 15

All I can see is your back and the cap.

[SHRED]

43. Here

And

[nadinbrzezinski]

46. I think I got that.

Will have to look through the file later

[Cheese Sandwich]

14. I'll differ. She's been doing decent work. So what she tweeted a picture of someone smoking a joint

It's not that big of a deal. There's no reason to shred her up over it. She saw it and the documented it. It distracts from our time to post the sad true facts about Hillary Clinton.

[Segami]

18. Sorry, I beg to differ with you on this...

Do you honestly consider her post to be professional? Judging from the Tweets, most, if not all have smoked out her intent. This post made it sound like Bernie was taking a picture with a guy while he was smoking a joint.....completely uncalled for, especially coming from a campaign reporter

"Man smoking joint while taking selfie with @BernieSanders"

[Cheese Sandwich]

24. Oh I see what you mean. I took it to mean something else.

I didn't see Bernie in the picture so I thought maybe the guy was taking a picture with Bernie on stage over his shoulder. Something like that.

[nadinbrzezinski]

29. The press did the same exact thing with OWS

and now it is starting to finally fully backfire. Many of the people on twitter, are younger than her, and remember what was done to OWS 

[snowy owl]

48. She is characterizing Bernie supporters - discrediting them. That's propaganda.

[mythology]

15. I'm not sure the person who can't get basic facts like her name right

should be calling somebody else a hack. Yes, we get it. She isn't fawning over Sanders ergo she must be a hack. That is a tired excuse.

[Segami]

20. Pffft....

[FourScore]

16. Just like the editor's choice comments vs reader's choice comments that I just read on the NYT's.

Sen Merkley's endorsement of Bernie. The editor's picks in the comment section were almost all Hillary supporters. Each comment had about 200-400 likes. The reader's favorites were all pro-Bernie and had between 1100-1800 likes. It was quite remarkable. The corporate media is doing all they can...

[ScreamingMeemie]

21. We will just have to come to grips with the fact that our eyeballs are lying liars.

[snowy owl]

49. A always find NYT comments best - they close too fast. It's turned into a rag.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

27. Her idiocy aside, I don't see why anyone needs clueless people telling us how to feel about politics

I'm in my late 40's. I love the younger generation--I think they're beating the hell out of what we Gen-X'ers accomplished. At the same time, I've been a student of politics for a long time. I just don't see me ever getting much useful information from Little Russert or whoever Kasie Hunt is. Give me some Bill Moyers reportage, please.

[nadinbrzezinski]

28. I know exactly what you mean

[Segami]

35. +1000

Ugh...."little Russert"......

[snowy owl]

51. x10 Give me We've still got Amy and Thom but online only

[Hieronymus]

30. Kasie's a helluva good reporter.

[nadinbrzezinski]

32. YOu do realize that the media has been trying to paint Sanders rallies as well Woodstock

She did attempt with that tweet and photo, what they did to OWS.

It is called meme creation. It should not be tolerated by the public, It is also editorializing the story. (And for the record, there might be some instruction from editors, knowing how this actually works)

[DebbieCDC]

34. Yes by all means

Let's focus on "OMG THE DIRTY HIPPIES ARE SMOKING POT" instead of thousands and thousands of people working to bring about the change this country so desperately needs.

And FWIW, pot is as ubiquitous in Washington Square as a Starbucks on every corner. Even when I lived in NYC years ago it was well known among my friends and coworkers as the place to go for a quick score.

[Waiting For Everyman]

37. This is my favorite:

I hope she gets so many complaints tonight that she loses her job, because I see her reports all the time and she really is craptastic at it and never objective. I'm sure there must be someone out there among all the Journalism go-getters who can do it much better than this.

[Ichingcarpenter]

39. Kasie Hunt is really MadTV's Angela Wright

She's an eight grade reporter doing projects to bring up her failing grade in social studies.

[Segami]

41. lol!

How true.....

[dreamnightwind]

40. I can't stand her

Her face and vibe always show that she isn't into the Bernie thing at all, and she makes little effort to hide it, or perhaps great effort to show it. She's doing what her employers want her to do, which is to dampen the Bern.

[DebDoo]

44. The best part is - if she just reported honestly she'd make a name for herself - she'd be a hero for

Fighting the establishment. That's what I don't get about these reporters who sell out

[Segami]

45. "You'll be surprised to learn it smells like pot here at the Bernie rally in Washington Square Park"

Really?.... Thats some breaking news reporting there Kasie.

[restorefreedom]

50. i truly loathe her

i dont care if she has her orders, she is enjoying trashing bernie.
