An attendee at the Republican National Convention caused quite a stir on twitter by throwing nuts at a Black CNN camerawoman and saying “This is how we feed the animals,” to the woman.
One-time MSNBC and current television anchor David Shuster posted the story on twitter by writing, “GOP attendee ejected for throwing nuts at African American CNN camera woman + saying ‘This is how we feed animals.’”
CNN initially did not comment but eventually confirmed the incident and stated: “CNN can confirm there was an incident directed at an employee inside the Tampa Bay Times Forum earlier this afternoon. CNN worked with convention officials to address this matter and will have no further comment.”
