HOUSTON—A cameraman for KPRC, NBC’s television affiliate here, has been disciplined by the station management for displaying a small Mexican flag on his camera while filming an April 28 protest here against deportations (above).

During the rally at a park in Houston’s predominantly Latino Magnolia area, the cameraman was harassed by counterdemonstrators from the right-wing group U.S. Border Watch shouting chauvinist taunts. One counterprotester yelled, “You’re a disgrace, you need to be shut down.” Another insisted on mounting a U.S. flag on the camera next to the Mexican flag, in spite of the cameraman’s protests.

Three days later, on May Day, KPRC news director Skip Valet announced that the cameraman had been disciplined in an unspecified manner.
