In one corner of the mediasphere, a local television station is getting a lot of backlash from the left for daring to report on the people arrested in Seattle.
As protesters descended upon the KING-TV building Thursday, one of them says, "I'm trying to protect the lives of protesters because they're going to dox them and put them in the public."
Doxing, for the uninitiated, is putting someone's private details into the public domain, usually to encourage people to harass or bully them, or worse.
8%. 92%. KING doxed these protesters as much as CNN's coverage of the charges of the O.J. Simpson car chase doxed him.
That's a reductio ad absurdum, of course, but arrests are public record and reporting on them is not even close to doxing - especially since doxing usually involves someone's address, digital accounts, place of work and other such information.
If you're still trying to get a sense of how angry protesters were at KING, check out the replies to Ingalls' tweet below.
What's more disturbing is when a reporter is being told what to do by the radical far left and their apologists, some of whom have stormed KING's headquarters, and there's not a peep out of the national media.
