Erin Burnett was at the Armed Services Ball last night

with Trump supporters. She said between 5 and 10 people came up to her and said "Fight for the freedom of the press" and "you are doing a good job". That's pretty significant.

Actually, I would think that it was military people that made it significant. Old Terp Jan 2017 #2

I thought she said 5 or 10 military personel attending told her, "They fight for the freedom of the press

and she was doing a good job."

I thought the military was trying to let her know that fighting for the freedom

of the press was part of their job and they wanted her to continue doing hers.

She made it sound as if they didn't want her to be afraid because they were

going to ignore Trump.

I will try to find a clip.

If you find it first will you please post it ???

Thanks so much.

Have a great evening.
