MSNBC field reporter Maggie Vespa quickly backed away from a conversation when faced with even mild criticism over her coverage of the migrant crisis in Ohio.

Her reporting focused on dismissing claims about Haitian migrants while ignoring the larger issue of 20,000 newcomers arriving in a town of just 58,000 overnight.

In her coverage, Vespa highlighted bomb threats allegedly linked to right-wing rhetoric about the migrant crisis, accusing conservatives of targeting “children of color.”

However, her reporting drew scrutiny for what some viewed as a narrow and fear-driven narrative.

During her time on the ground in Springfield, Ohio, Vespa’s bodyguard allegedly assaulted independent journalist Nick Sortor when he questioned her reporting.

The incident, which has since gained attention on social media, occurred after Sortor asked Vespa why her coverage seemed so limited and one-sided.

Sortor, who was filming the encounter, did not appear confrontational, and the altercation escalated when a large man, possibly Vespa’s bodyguard, intervened.

The man’s connection to MSNBC remains unclear, though Sortor described the individual as aggressive.

The encounter raised questions about MSNBC’s approach to field journalism and how they handle reporters’ safety.

In a tweet following the incident, Sortor said, “I personally confronted the MSNBC ‘reporter’ here in Springfield, Ohio, and she tried to have me arrested.”

He criticized Vespa for attempting to shift blame to former President Donald Trump regarding an assassination attempt against him.

The incident has sparked debate about journalistic standards and the role of reporters in gathering a wide range of perspectives.

Vespa’s response to criticism, coupled with the alleged assault on Sortor, has led some to question whether her coverage is more about pushing a specific narrative rather than offering balanced, comprehensive reporting.

  • Vespa is no genuine journalist, what we got here is a failure to communicate the truth to the public! Instead she is a “partisan news hack schill” for the Commie Democrat Crap Party! I worked in photojournalism years ago and so this coming which is why I got away from it, now it’s worse than I imagined it would get; it’s an actual “shit show” and about where Pravda was in their reporting back in the old USSR. Just like the Party the Mass Media are Criminals now!

    Some people have no moral integrity or humanity and will do anything for quick easy big money!

    1 Timothy 6:10-11 “10For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows. 11But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness.”

  • I just cannot imagine what could go wrong when you send 20000 immigrants with a completely different culture of 58000 population that cannot speak the language of the country they are entering and I might add they do not even speak a recognizable French dialect. This whole scenario wreaks of potential disaster.

  • Tumbleweed. Correct, and it’s “disaster that is desired!”

    We’re dealing with diabolical evil, please wake up fellow Americans; it’s real and it permeates our government.

    Pelosi, Schumer, Biden, Harris and so many others have been blatantly right in the open with their disdain, contempt and hatred for anything or anyone that disrupts the Democrat grip on absolute power and in fact for what is actually good and just. February 4, 2020 Pelosi tearing up President Trump’s State of the Union Address when he was in office; right out in the open for the whole world to see while she gloated in her authority and power with ZERO humility, which says it all about her and how it’s all because they’re working hand in hand with Satan, they are as corrupted and evil as anyone can be on earth! Then from obvious signs like that to horrific right in the open actions like assassination attempts, multiple times already (make no mistake Pelosi, Biden, etc. were in on it) and still not quitting to blow Trump away, this tells us all we need to know about what has happened to our US Constitutional Republic under God government! Diabolical forces have hijacked it and if the majority of the population doesn’t wake up NOW and seek to stop it, “by turning to God Almighty; by and through Jesus Christ,” there will be hell to pay for turning away from Him.

    Why else do they the Democrat Party push abortion to the hilt even up to full-term day of delivery, because it’s their way of making “human sacrifices” to Satan right in the open so they get and keep their earthly power! In his first 100 days in office Biden signed an executive order to appropriate 468 $Billion exclusively for abortion up to full term and day of delivery, which he said that he was so proud of doing! He obviously “sold his soul to the Devil” and has been serving him now for decades. That funding was nearly 20 times the amount “the previous abortion king Obama” had appropriated!

    So now do you all understand why our nation is coming apart at the seams with havoc, hatred and even evil Satan worshiping monsters running loose in the streets like, actual ISIS terrorists, MS-13, Tren de Aragua the Venezuelan gang, Major drug cartels and unbelievably now even some Voodoo “human flesh eating” Haitian derelicts all of which were brought here intentionally; Really, this is the idea of Democrat immigration! “Satan’s playground now,” because of these monsters in our government and the multitudes of citizens that voted them into office and also have lived as heathens and evildoers rejecting God; look at pop culture and music, say Taylor Swift who has been pushed to the top making $billions now to help “brainwash young girls to love abortion over being a virtuous good woman and mother when they are married!” The world’s garbage pail people are going to assimilate here in our beloved America, so they’re our problem now? Where is the great past American Culture and Christianity that filled our nation’s people, schools, universities and neighborhoods? The suffering has just begun!

    Ephesians 6:11-13 “Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore take up the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you will be able to stand your ground, and having done everything, to stand.”

    2 Chronicles 7:13-15 “If I close the sky so there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send a plague among My people, 14and if My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land. 15Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.”

  • I was going to add some additional comment here but I had to already elsewhere on this site so it works here also.

    Thank you Michael you said it perfectly and tell it like it is; which is the massive issue in America because so many citizens forgot or don’t care anymore what the bottom-line really is or what truly matters, they’ve become “sheeple to the most corrupt among us and the Devil.”

    I was planning to add some further thought when I would return here but you said most if not all of what was on my mind. I will add the following Scripture, which I had pierce my mind like a bolt of lightning as I finished breakfast.

    I don’t care what any politicians are saying especially in this time of dire straits that humanity has entered into!

    This is the reason why the great American Constitutional Republic of the People under God has fallen to such depths of madness and debauchery, as well the entire world in kind.

    Romans 1:27-30 “Likewise, the men abandoned natural relations with women and burned with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error. 28Furthermore, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, He gave them up to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant, and boastful. They invent new forms of evil; they disobey their parents. 31They are senseless, faithless, heartless, merciless. 32Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things are worthy of death, they not only continue to do these things, but also approve of those who practice them.”
    Democrat Party and its leadership to the hilt.

    All you woke and leftist out to lunch lost souls have brought on the biggest calamity this Nation and even planet has ever known as you laughed, but, oh how you will scream when you get your eternal reward! Humans absolutely have souls that God intended them to have, “in His likeness they were created,” so they could exist with Him in the eternal kingdom of God; yet by free will which is also another gift from our Maker, so many will not be with Him in heaven but will instead be with the evil one they chose for eternity. It absolutely pays to keep your nose clean and be a good human being who is God fearing; but alas, for far too many it is now “too little too late.” Anyone out there who knows they are not wicked and evil, say perhaps had been walking on the wild side and sitting on the middle of the fence; now is your time to get right with God. Amen.

    Certain officials and their backers or such in Washington and elsewhere don’t stand a chance after all they have done and committed to! They talk about “Choice” so much yet they made the worst choice any human being could ever make; hell over God.

    Amen.
    God bless.

    • Amazing isn’t it! These people are the dregs of society not any professional unbiased journalists which they pretend to be! They work for corporations owned and operated by slime like Soros and many Illuminati devils. Reason I walked away from the Industry and Hollywood years ago.
      Basically like being close to a snake pit and one day you could slip up and fall in to never come out right or alive again!
