If a reporter can be fired for openly admitting he supports our current President, then 90% of the reporters in America should be fired for their open resistance of our President.
Fox News – James Bunner, a multimedia journalist for NBC affiliate KTTC-TV in Austin, was fired Friday, reportedly for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat while covering President Trump’s rally in Rochester on Thursday.
As the rally got underway, images of Bunner wearing the bright red hat began appearing on Twitter.

Noel Sederstrom, the station’s news director, told the Star Tribune of Minneapolis that the station’s policy does not allow staff members to wear apparel from political campaigns while covering stories.
Mark Vancleave, the person who tweeted images of Bunner wearing the hat, later tweeted that Bunneer had been fired.
As of today Jim Bunner no longer works for KTTC (per phone conversation with @ADLavinsky). pic.twitter.com/O1hk94jdY7
