Unfortunately for the Fox reporters, when Jacobs appeared on Georgey boy's show this morning, Jacobs contradicted their account and supported Gianforte's account of what happened.

When asked what happened, Jacobs said that Gianforte first grabbed the recorder which Jacobs had put in Gianforte's face and that's what started the whole scuffle.

Now how could Gianforte grab Jacobs by the neck with BOTH HANDS when Jacobs admits Gianforte grabbed his recorder with his hand and that's when the scuffle began?

Jacobs' account of how the scuffle began matches Gianforte's account of what started the scuffle which was after Gianforte told Jacobs that he would respond to Jacobs' question later, Jacobs said that would be too late and he stuck his recorder in Gianforte's face so Gianforte grabbed the recorder to push it away and Jacobs grabbed Gianforte's wrist then the two of them fell over and hit the floor.

I really don't care about the details, this guy belongs in jail, not Congress. You can't assault people.

Pretty hard to accurately remember the specific of being choked, bodyslammed, and punched in the face.

Again:

Loch Ness Monster in SF bay: credible.

Story backed up by statements from multiple witnesses and audio recording: not credible.

Just because they were Fox reporters doesn't mean they weren't lying liberal sh*theads with an agenda. How come there's no video?

Yeah, that must be why Gianforte has been charged with assault. LINK

Another informative post. Keep up the good work.

I'm fairly sure the courts have ruled you can't just invade a person's personal space and do what you want....like shove a recorder in someone's face after they told you to stop 2 times.

Is there a video or a transcript somewhere so we aren't relying on your word-for-word recollection of a program that aired four hours ago?

I watched the interview and Jacobs said Gianforte grabbed the recorder.

What do you claim Jacobs said that was different from what I claim Jacobs said?

Well. Jacobs remembers that Gianforte first grabbed his recorder and then the scuffle began.

How can Gianforte first grab Jacobs by the neck with both hands when Jacobs admits Gianforte first grabbed the recorder that Jacobs stuck in Giaforete's face?
