Anna Werner, "investigative" "reporter" (KPIX CBS 5 San Francisco)

KPIX CBS 5 in the Bay Area bills Anna Werner as "one of the nation's top investigative reporters". If this were the novel Fahrenheit 451, that statement would be true. However, in our world, she's little more than a transcriptionist and a propagandist. See, for instance, her "report" on Richmond CA becoming a sanctuary city for illegal aliens. The latest example can be found in "Immigration Agents Conducting Raids In S.F."
CBS 5 Investigates has been looking into complaints about federal immigration raids in the East Bay. Now CBS 5 has learned they have moved into San Francisco.

Immigrant rights groups maintain even though the city is officially a sanctuary for undocumented immigrants, that isn't stopping immigration from conducting raids here.
As far as I know, not even the awesome powers of the far-lefties in 'Frisco can overturn federal laws.

Then Werner transcribes quotes from S.F. Supervisor Gerardo Sandoval ("...the INS has gone out to employers..."; the INS dissolved about four years ago) and Miguel Perez with the Latin American Alliance for Immigrant Rights.

Then, Werner goes for the gut:
And it's clearly a painful experience for many immigrants like a woman who wanted to be identified only by her first name, Rebecca.
Then, we get a quote from Mayor Gavin Newsom:
"I am very concerned about the recent raids performed in various parts of the city by immigration and customs enforcement... These raids jeopardize the public health and safety of the city by instilling fear in those who may come forward to report information about a crime."
In the only instance of reporting she's capable of, it ends with this:
An ICE spokeswoman refused to provide specific details regarding where and when those raids were conducted in San Francisco.
I don't know exactly why they'd do that, but perhaps it has something to do with jeopardizing ongoing operations?

The feds have done some horrible things, and we want investigative reporters to uncover abuse and wrongdoing on their part. However, what Werner and those she quotes oppose is lawful, reasonable enforcement of federal law.
