As she tried to break free, one UCLA student journalist said, she was punched repeatedly in the chest and upper abdomen; another student journalist was pushed to the ground and beaten and kicked for nearly a minute.

This year, I became one of the few journalists to ever walk the Darién Gap - a jungle spanning Colombia and Panama home to a huge migration crisis.

I wrote a first-person piece for The New Humanitarian, including seeing dead bodies and gangs robbing people.

These scenes of student journos being attacked by protesters and law enforcement are abhorrent!

Student journos have the same protections under the First Amendment as professionals, and right now they are outperforming many traditional news media outlets. 3/4

When I was looking at the damage at Hamilton Hall this morning, I saw Minouche Shafik walking in, accompanied by four men. I waited until she walked outside again to capture this moment.

Thank you Getty Images News for using my images.

No journalist should be unsafe doing their job — much less a journalist who is a college student covering their own campus. This is deeply upsetting and absolutely unacceptable.

UCLA has a lot of explaining to do.

Outrageous and unacceptable. When the dust settles on the story of tonight, this is one detail that must be included—a galling failure UCLA leadership should be confronted over.

I just called UCPD for a statement on the ongoing violence in Dickson Court.

The response: “No, absolutely not.”

They hung up before I could ask another question.

UCLA UPDATE 🚨: Still ZERO law enforcement present, dozens of people needing medical assistance, and this man appears to be bleeding profusely in his right arm. Security ordered to stand down, no LAPD presence. A Jewish woman said multiple men assaulted her, no security help.

.Stanford University’s encampment hosted the founder of SJP today, a man who has repeatedly promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories and supported violence. These tweets in 2017 were the subject of a dispute with his employer, UC Berkeley.

WCK served 200,000 meals to displaced Palestinians today as we resumed work in Gaza. We’ve provided more than 43 million meals in Gaza to date. 276 WCK trucks are ready to enter through Rafah with enough food for 8 million meals. We’re also sending trucks north.

Reporter grills Columbia student after she demands the university help feed protestors occupying Hamilton Hall:

'It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'.'

Note to Self: In my cri de coeur journalism manifesto about how I'm going to target billionaires, don't write this sentence:

'I’m not going to pretend to be fair.'
