Former Handgun Control, Inc. Spokesman Jake Tapper Given Award by the Cronkite Center for Staging Gun Control "Town Hall" Set Up to Be a Raucous "WWE Event" and Setting Up Dana Loesch to Serve as the Hated Wrestling Heel

Tweets below.

She continues tweeting, but I'll just quote these instead of embedding them:

Some interesting notes: CNN set this up like a WWE event. Purposefully. They allowed Scott Israel to take the stage before the cameras turned on and electioneer; he took that time (about 20 minutes) to start blaming law-abiding gun owners.

When the producers cued me to walk into the arena it was to the Black Eyed Peas' song "Let's Get It Started." I am completely serious. I was shocked and confused -- while I knew I was taking questions, we were only told that day that I would actually be on stage.

After the broadcast ended, one of my detail had to stop a woman who rushed the stage to tackle me from behind. That is when Tapper asked me if I had an escort out. I am positive that CNN's cameras, still operational, observed this and would like for them to release the footage.

I showed up in good faith for genuine conversation knowing that at best, it would be a tough event. The lengths @CNNPR went to inflame emotions & exploit pain to *put on a show* is inexcusable, shameful, & it’s grotesque they’re celebrating getting an "award" for their conduct.

I'm on air across the country right now, so feel free to take this up with me on my airwaves at any time now or convenient for you in the future. Shame on you. You advanced nothing, you set genuine dialog back by ages, @CNNPR @CronkiteAward .

Those with integrity would reject this absolute sham of an award. But, narratives and ratings. Congrats on the "show," CNN. Applause, applause.

And yet "conservatives" who you should totally take as trusted advisers continue performing an**lingus on this leftist shill in hopes that he'll retweet their NeverTrump tweets.
