White Man confronts Black reporter on live TV during Hurricane Ida coverage<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0

TV reporter Shaquille Brewster was covering the aftermath of Hurricane Ida in Gulfport, Mississippi when a white man got out of his vehicle and began walking towards him while yelling\u00a0according\u00a0to Today. Brewster works for NBC News and MSNBC correspondent was giving an update on the area when the pickup truck was seen in the frame of the camera.’ Aquaman’ Amber Heard InterviewPause1:15\u00a0\/ 1:45SettingsFull-screen<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The driver then gets out and comes rushing toward the reporter yelling \u201creport accurately.\u201d Brewster attempts to redirect the cameraman so that the man isn\u2019t captured. \u201cI am going to turn this way because we deal with some people every once in a while,\u201d he told host Craig Melvin. Brewster used his forearm to shield himself as the  man walked back up to him and ranted \u201creport accurately!\u201d The reporter tried to continue the coverage but realizes he cannot and, tells Melvin he\u2019ll toss it back to him while the man continued yelling at crew members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melvin then told viewers, \u201cWe\u2019re going to check in with Shaq Brewster just to make sure all is well. There\u2019s a lot of crazy out there, a lot of crazy.\u201d Moments later, the Howard University graduate tweeted, \u201cappreciate the concern guys\u201d and that \u201cthe team and I are all good!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melvin later wrote on social media, \u201cThis is beyond unacceptable and disgusting. @shaqbrewster was trying to do his job on a beach in Gulfport, MS. Shaq is ok. This guy who nearly attacked him clearly is not.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, Melvin told viewers, \u201cI do want to note here for a moment, you probably saw or heard a few moments ago a correspondent was disrupted by some wacky guy in his live shot there in Mississippi. Pleased to report that Shaquille Brewster is doing just fine. Shaq is OK.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the video went viral people showed their support including one Twitter user who wrote, \u201cI cannot believe you have to deal with people like this.\u201d They added, \u201cI do hope NBC will allow you to address this on air. The attack on media has gotten out of hand a long time ago.\u201d The person later encouraged the reporter to press charges if he made physical contact with him, before applauded Brewster on doing a \u201cgreat job\u201d and \u201cThis has to be stopped.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement following the confrontation, MSNBC President Rashida Jones praised Brewster, calling him \u201can exceptional journalist.\u201d She added, \u201cLike the consummate professional, he did not let someone intimidate him from doing his job. We\u2019re glad he and the team are safe, and we couldn\u2019t be more proud and supportive of their work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
