RNC Attendee Allegedly Threw Nuts At Black CNN Camerawoman

[The War Report]

An attendee at the Republican National Convention in Tampa on Tuesday allegedly threw nuts at a black camerawoman working for CNN and said “This is how we feed animals” before being removed from the convention, a network official confirmed to TPM.

The CNN official declined to confirm specific details of the incident to TPM but generally confirmed an account posted on Twitter by former MSNBC and Current anchor David Shuster: “GOP attendee ejected for throwing nuts at African American CNN camera woman + saying ‘This is how we feed animals.’”

It is not clear whether the alleged culprit was a delegate or attending the convention in some other capacity.

In a written statement, CNN addressed the matter but divulged few details: “CNN can confirm there was an incident directed at an employee inside the Tampa Bay Times Forum earlier this afternoon. CNN worked with convention officials to address this matter and will have no further comment.”

TPM’s calls to RNC and convention officials were not immediately returned.

Cacs being cacs. Why are you acting as if this is shocking news? The guy throwing nuts was probably drunk and felt like he was back at home or something..

One person doesn't represent the whole party.

I have been to more than a few dinner parties and events, and nothing has ever happened to me. I'm never the only Filipino or SEA there either, and i'm never the only brown skinned person. There are quite Indians, Filipinos and Hispanics who are Active in the GOP and hold high positions. You'll never see the Media take pictures those guys. That doesn't fit the image they want to portray.
