'Say That S**t!' Fox Reporter Gets Cursed Out On-Air By Ferguson Protestor

By TOM KLUDT Published AUGUST 19, 2014, 9:56 AM EDT

A Fox News correspondent found himself on the receiving end of a profane, on-air tirade late Monday after he referred to the latest round of violence in Ferguson, Mo. as "child's play."

Reporting on the ground from the St. Louis suburb, correspondent Steve Harrigan described the scene to anchor Shepard Smith.

"This is right now a media event, pure and simple. This is people running towards tear gas, running away from it," Harrigan said. "The dignified protestors went home at dusk. This is just child’s play right now."

That description didn't sit well with a demonstrator, who angrily confronted Harrigan during the live shot.

Bunch of racist foxholes trying to downplay the military police action.

Talking about childs play...was that Bundy b.s. childs play, when he was driving his cattle on government property and all those teabaggers were out there with the their rifles/guns just waiting for the cops to cross the line. Was it just because the cops were not firing smoke bombs and tear gas at those so-called 'peaceful' demonstrators with their rifles, etc.

And Shep, I'm surprised at Shep believing what that reporter had to say.

YES, FAUX Noise! You're in the wrong!
Reporting the wrong thing with no apologies, no effort to do better. Too wrapped up in your own propaganda to be able to see the realities you claim to be reporting.
You have no F'ing clue.
