The broadcast was cut short and returned to the studio where newsreader Chrissy Reid apologised, saying: “Oh dear, apologies about the interruption there.”The reporter later took to Twitter to “call out” the behaviour as “aggressive and threatening”.Irving wrote: “Reporting live on the refuse collectors strike in Brighton today when around 7 men jumped in front of the camera shouting aggressive and threatening terms. It’s not funny. It’s misogynistic. Just calling it out.”Reporting live on the refuse collectors strike in #Brighton today when around 7 men jumped in front of the camera shouting aggressive and threatening terms. It’s not funny. It’s misogynistic. Just calling it out.— Fiona Irving (@journofi) October 5, 2021The attack came as justice secretary Dominic Raab echoed Boris Johnson in refusing to back calls for misogyny to be made a hate crime.“I think we have often seen, in the criminal justice system over decades, people trying to legislate away what is an enforcement problem,” he told BBC Breakfast.He said misogyny is “absolutely wrong whether it’s a man against a woman or a woman against a man”.BBC host Sally Nugent quickly jumped in, and read out the definition of misogyny to Raab as “hatred against, directed towards, women”.Raab was talking about the new inquiry ordered by home secretary Priti Patel into how a serving police officer murdered Sarah Everard.Related...Dominic Raab Put His Foot In It (Again) And Said You Can Be Misogynistic To MenViewers Dubbed Spitting Image's Depiction Of Starmer And Phillips 'Misogynistic''It's Rotten To The Core' – Women Are Sharing How They Want Policing To Change
