A new video has been released which shows the initial encounter:
NewsBusters has audio of a caller asking CNN why this story is not being covered:
A man called in to CNN’s Helpline on Tuesday wondering why the network hasn’t reported the Black Panthers who were seen standing in front of a Philadelphia polling station this morning, one of them carrying a billy club.
According to the caller (audio available here), he was going to vote for Obama until a friend told him about this incident. The caller said, “Now Fox has broadcast this, and I want to know why CNN has not broadcast this yet.”
I wonder…

“Good. You White Racist Republicans have learned to control your fear. Now, release your anger, only your anger can destroy me!” – Darth Obama
I’m sorry,intimidation…….first of all,how are they to know how anyone is voting? Secondly,I saw the report earlier and your reporting of it and it sure looked like you were wishing something was going on but no one stopped you from taping or going in,did they? The police came and removed one of the men like they should have .I don’t understand your problem.Why don’t you spend more time talking about the illegal purging of voters from the roles without notifying them? Ohhhh,because that’s republican bad behavior.I see now.
