A South Carolina news crew reporting on a murder investigation were attacked by four people as they worked on the story across from the victim's house. The four people - three women and a man, all white and reportedly connected to the murder suspect - punched and tackled the black female reporter (Charmayne Brown, a 12 year veteran) while yelling racial abuse at her and her cameraman. Watch a report about the incident, and you can also see raw footage of the incident HERE. A white television crew was also there, and they were not attacked. Brown was not seriously injured.

2. The reporter was attacked but It was not racial. It was a motive of Opportunity. She was left alone while the crew was in the van/car. She may have said something (though true) Upset the family. They saw their chance and took it. Yes they should have been arrested. They said what they did because it was the easies way for them to Humiliate and provoke the Lady reporter. But then again both reports do not say or show what happen at the beginning. I may change my mind if I saw that.

3. The reporter got JUST what she deserved...she went out go get a story...looked to stur up some S H ! T...well guess what!!!
When people are upset, they need time to gather their emotions...but the BLOOD THURSTY media WANTS that time when people 's guard are down...then don't act like a victim when S H ! T happens.
Personally, she deserved to have her bleached teeth kicked out...that is ,if they were real...
In life SOMETIMES, we really get what we deserve...just ask the reporter !!!

4. This was not the news "CREW", it was one big mouth arrogant black woman who let her alligator mouth overload her humming bird as*. She asked for and got her butt kicked. Who cares? Show what she said to start the entire episode not just the fun part showing her on the bottom of the pile.
