Political reporters have described a pattern of being arrested, pinned, slapped and body slammed.
Montana law enforcement officials have charged GOP House candidate Greg Gianforte with misdemeanor assault following an alleged physical altercation with a reporter Wednesday evening, just hours before voters head to the polls.
Washington Times
Greg Gianforte, Montana’s Republican hopeful for the congressional seat vacated by Ryan Zinke — who’s now President Donald Trump’s secretary of Interior — had a little bit of an altercation with one of the reporters who questioned him at his campaign headquarters in Bozeman. And given the special election is Thursday, one might say the unpleasantries came at a quite inopportune time.
