MSNBC's Chris Hayes claims he defended Tea Party's right to 'scream' at politicians, 2009 clip shows otherwise


The "All In" host repeatedly dismissed the outcry among conservatives and Trump supporters on social media. Hayes then recalled his days covering the Tea Party movement in the late 2000s and early 2010s. However, according to a 2009 clip resurrected by journalist Zaid Jilani, Hayes wasn't nearly as sympathetic to that movement as he claimed. "What’s infuriating about this is the Tea Party protests were almost entirely peaceful and they got treated by the press like rioters," RealClearInvestigations senior writer Mark Hemingway said. "The protesters this year have rioted and done potentially billions in damage and the press says they’re 'mostly peaceful.'"
