Melbourne TV news recently showed a father losing his cool outside court, but failed to show why he got so angry. The unedited camera tape reveals how he and his son were provoked by Nine cameraman, Simon Fuller, who then called the father a "f**king terrorist".

The moslems were clearly racists and had combined with the powers that be to discredit ordinary (white) working men.

Not a lot gets me angry to the point of violence but man... The reporter not only told him to F Off.... but also called him a terrorist and the way they were following him, and responding to his requests to please go away, was like he was goading the pair.
Bravo to the news channel for showing this.

“I cracked, and I said something that I shouldn’t have said,” said Fuller. “I know what I did was wrong. I’m not a racist. I’ve got European heritage; I’m half Italian. I’ve worked in several countries in Europe and around the world.”

I managed to find Fuller's response to the incident.

Cant really be that upset with the camera man, other then he shouldn't have called him a terroist.
He was doing his job, like the paparazzi do in the US. Granted he did provoke the father, but the man did say several times, "I"m just doing my job".
Now for the edited piece that made it to television. Got to lay all the blame on the editor. The camera man got all the footage, they don't get to decide what you will see.
I saw two people in the wrong and on person in the wrong in the background.
