Scene reporter Eli Motycka (@ejmotycka) was arrested by Vanderbilt police while reporting on student protests.
@ejmotycka Video taken by @formvscontent.
@NashvilleScene @ejmotycka The mistake he made is that Vanderbilt is a private University. By being there and not a student or employee he was trespassing. If he didn't register with the administration and get permission, they were within their rights to arrest him just for being there. No warning needed.
@NashvilleScene @ejmotycka Please provide context. What are they protesting?
@NashvilleScene @ejmotycka We need an Ammendment to protect the Press to report the government wrongdoing and the facts in general.
