Journalist Morgonn McMichael detained upon return from Davos.
She shares her story below.
AP Editor’s Note: Any harassment of a journalist traveling to or from Davos is a pretty good indication that you should be listening to this journalist.
Getting a “random search” through 2 airports and 3 security checkpoints and again at my gate for a 4th search & pat down.
My name was on a list with only 5 other names I saw.
When I asked why they said I had been flagged by TSA/ Homeland Security
This isn’t a coincidence…

Flagged with her name on a list…
Today I was explicitly told I was flagged and had my name on a list. This is what happens when Americans travel working to expose the evil. #FormerDetainee #WEF23 US Citizens searched 5 times in one day
