CNN Capitol Hill correspondent Lisa Desjardins does a live report from the National Mall in Washington on the day of a huge Taxpayer March or “tea party protest” against the government.
At the start of the interview, anchor Fredricka Whitfield “forewarns” the audience that there might be some yelling during the report.

Desjardins struggles to get through the interview in front of chants of “tell the truth” and “go home, CNN”.
The brave reporter then attempts to ask the protesters a question: “What do you think of Congressman Joe Wilson?” The crowd reacts with applause, then starts chanting, “Way to go, Joe.”
