Kalen D’Almeida ( @FromKalen) is not a journalist. He brags about violating basic journalistic ethics.

SPJ’s Code of Ethics: “Avoid undercover or other surreptitious methods of gathering information unless traditional, open methods will not yield information vital to the public” https://twitter.com/savantifa/status/1313637599978811392
This is not journalism. By dressing up as a protester and mixing in with the group, Kalen shreds basic journalistic ethics, impartiality, and what little reputation he still has.

Many clearly-identified members of the press were present on this march. This is provocateur stuff.
It’s self-evident that Kalen D’Almeida is not a journalist.

Kalen is an activist and provocateur. He does not deserve the considerations normally given to legitimate members of the press.

Ethical news agencies should never license Kalen’s footage. https://twitter.com/dudgedudy/status/1313642312346619905
