Black Cameraman Says Maxine Waters Aint Shit While Caping for Racist Left-Wing Reporter

[Blue_Tires]

Yesterday, Michael Tracey, a “roving” reporter for The Young Turks, a progressive news show on YouTube with millions of subscribers, decided to come for “Auntie Maxine” Waters (D-CA) before he was ready. During the “March for Truth” in Los Angeles, Tracey and his cameraman Ty Bayliss approached Waters and asked her about the Democratic Party’s focus on RussiaGate as well as her previous support for a U.S. / Russian solution to the Syrian conflict under Obama. When Waters answered then dismissed further questions from Tracey, he went full SuperSaiyanWypipoBernieBro and posted the following on Twitter.

Tracey followed up with some epic concern trolling, repeatedly claiming the incident “wasn’t violent” but ratcheting up the conflict with words like “shove” and “push.” He threw in some racially coded words like “criminal” and “intemperate” just to make sure his dog whistle was in digital surround sound.

Once Tracey posted the “explosive” video of his encounter with Congressman Waters, most journalists were less than impressed.

I told you all a long time ago Tracey was a piece of shit...

2. I had to look up 'caping' as I had never heard it before:

when you blindly defend someone, no matter how wrong they are.

3. There is a lot of that going on ("caping")

[CurtEastPoint]

10. I'll say!

4. He's got his head up the alt-right's ass

This little twitter claim that Waters 'shoved him' was just another of his stunts to smear Dems as being 'the same/worse than' Republicans.

That mean Maxine is just like Gianforte!!!

Notice also the bullshit line of questioning. Again following the alt-right script on Trump/Russia.

Those self-identified 'progressives' at TYT sure know how to pick them, don't they?

Don't get me started on Jimmy Dore, Hannity's little dem-hating helper in torturing Seth Rich's parents.

9. I've seen people here claim TYT is just like NBC, RT like the BBC

I wanted to alert for RW propaganda but I thought it might confuse people. LOL

5. Twitter owned his ass

That stunt backfired on him. It was beautiful to watch.

6. Why did they find it so important to headline the TYT cameraman as African American?

Was that somehow intended to give Tracey more credibility because he is African American?

The fact that both Tracey and Bayliss both are employed by the TYT is more relevant to the lack of credibility than their ethnic background

8. He did the "my black friend agrees" thing.

11. I understand betty, but it has unecessary racial overtones, that do not contribute to the

fact that both Tracey and Bayliss are idiots

Just my first impressions

[bettyellen]

12. Oh I agree. And them both laughing about the incident while trying to pretend they were seriously

Offended was pretty pathetic. He had other people who could have backed him up, that guy seemed embarrassed he was chosen. So stupid.

13. I have to believe the late night talk show hosts or Saturday Night Live are going to jump

all over this

[Blue_Tires]

17. +1

[bettyellen]

18. It appeared he had two other people on the crew he could have chosen

Poor guy was laughing uncomfortably becasue he knew it was silly.

7. Tracey needs to hold all the L's

Lol@bayliss too, when you cape for a piece of shit you should evaluate your life choices. He deserves all the ruckus memes headed his direction.

14. Cenk works for Putin, so this makes sense.

[lib87]

16. Oh Really?

I knew TYT was going down hill but I did not know it was that bad. Whoa.

[JI7]

15. he is right wing
