A 20-year-old North Carolina man has been charged with assault after storming a TV reporter’s live shot, shoving her aside and screaming the n-word into the microphone, WMBF-TV reported.
Wearing a blue shirt and dark glasses, a man alleged to be Justin Moore of Charlotte, N.C. jumped in front of WMBF reporter Ashley Taylor during an 11 p.m. newscast Wednesday night and shouted what sounded like, “I am that n—-r!”
The newscast quickly cut away and the man took off running. Police officers were given photo of the suspect and apprehended Moore a few moments later.
According to WMBF, Taylor said she was preparing to go on TV when she and a coworker noticed a group of four or five males lingering in the area. The incident occurred shortly after she began speaking.
Moore has been charged with third-degree assault and battery. He was released from jail Thursday on bond.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 12:11amThis man is clearly in violation of the code of ethics set forth for Americans by the Rev Jackson, and the Rev Sharpton, for using the N word. See that his name is smeared by the main stream media so he receives vigilante justice after he is tried in the court of public opinion.

It called respect. This young man obviously does not have any for anyone else, and he should be charged.

Posted on April 21, 2012 at 7:03am@NOLAND Cut to the chase: it’s not funny, especially given the social climate/context. It also proves how brazen criminals can be, and that cameras are not a deterrent, but in some cases, a magnet.
@INDYNWGUY Nice try. You actually think this guy is tarnished for life over this? Pffffttt….Wrong. His behavior is championed in some circles, and this is a type of “counting coup”. Get a clue.

I had a friend this week approached as she was getting in her car ..the man (yes he was black and she white) told her he wanted her and he knew she wanted him … she told him she had a gun and would use it .. he continued to hold her door and tell her that he would “give it to her” … (rape she said was clearly what he was talking about) .. she reached into the armrest and he let go of the door .. she had bluffed him .. but she is NOT going to take that chance again .. she is getting a gun and a CCW … we live south of Tampa where the NBPP have made threats to turn the streets red with blood … anyone who doesn’t believe they are serious and enboldened .. is not living in reality.
