Description:

Nine’s US correspondent Lauren Tomasi was shot in the leg with a rubber bullet during a live cross amid the tense scenes in downtown Los Angeles. Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has revealed his government raised the incident with the Trump administration, calling the footage “horrific”. Tomasi has already returned to work, saying she was “a bit sore, but I’m okay” and vowing to “keep on telling the stories that need to be told”. The incident has gone international and sparked outrage. The LAPD said officers were “looking into” the incident, saying the department was “very concerned” about it. In the vision, the officer who fired the bullet appeared to aim directly at the reporter for a moment before firing. So is press freedom still a democratic right in Trump’s America? Here’s why you haven’t heard the last of this story.
