0:58Now PlayingThis Thursday night at 8 p.m. EST WE ARE GOING LIVE with Sean Reyes, aka @LongIslandAudit, for a conversation that I truly believe we need to have together:
Is a copwatcher a journalist, an activist, a gadfly, a provocateur… or something entirely new?
And WHO gets to decide what a journalist is?
As many of you know, Sean’s work has attracted millions of viewers, but it has also sparked passionate criticism and debate, including right here in our own YouTube comments! Some of you believe copwatchers are doing essential journalism by filming police, questioning powerful institutions, and defending our First Amendment rights. Others believe that confrontation can cross a line or make genuine accountability more difficult. Or that cop watchers like him are in it for the clicks and views.
Stephen and I have been reading your comments, your criticism, your questions, and your thoughtful analysis and we want to bring YOUR voices directly into this livestream!
Sean will join us to respond to the controversy surrounding his work, discuss his recent confrontation with a powerful police union that resulted in his arrest, and answer the questions you have been raising!
We will be reading your comments to Sean LIVE! We also want to hear from you during the show because this conversation should not just belong to journalists, politicians, police unions, or YouTubers, it belongs to all of us!
