Morning Joe Confronts Conway Over Trump Calling Out NBC"s Katy Tur
Donald Trump had gotten to the Media Are Disgusting portion of the festivities at a campaign stop in Miami today, when he spied NBC News Katy Tur.
We have massive crowds. There is something happening. Theyre not reporting it, the GOP nominee bellowed, pointing to the cameras and media pen at his rally. Katy, youre not reporting it, Katy. But there is something happening, Katy. There is something happening, Katy.
Once again #ImWithTur began trending this morning, and still was trending hours later, as journalists and Trump nonfans tweeted in support of the reporter who has been embedded with the Trump campaign. Its not the first time the media has risen to Trumps bait when hes taken off after Tur; the hashtag reportedly was born in the summer after he repeatedly singled her out with his elementary school-style bullying.
Among Trumps taunts: He once told Tur to be quiet during a news conference; he told pals at Fox & Friends his campaign does not let people talk to Tur because shes not a very good reporter; and, during another of his well-received Media Are Scum spouts at a rally, he told enthusiastic supporters where they could find Little Katy, third-rate journalist.
On the bright side, Tur got a great Marie Claire piece out of Trumps taunts.
As Marie Claire noted after todays Trump tantrum:
Today, Turs colleagues seemed especially angry about Trumps taunts:
Of course, not everyone was tweeting in support:
