NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! OutKick host Riley Gaines and independent journalist Nick Shirley agreed on Friday that the “No Kings” protesters are oddly silent when it comes to a bill they say would punish citizen journalists.California Democrats are being ripped over a bill that one state assembly member has dubbed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act,” which he argues would “criminalize” investigative journalism.The controversial AB 2624 bill, officially titled “Privacy for immigration support services providers,” creates privacy protections for immigration support service providers, employees and volunteers, including hiding their addresses and imposing penalties on those who publish their image on social media. Democratic lawmakers say the legislation is needed to protect people from targeted political violence.However, critics, including Republican Assemblymember Carl DeMaio, argue the bill would actually work to “silence citizen journalists and shield taxpayer-funded organizations from public scrutiny.”NICK SHIRLEY RESPONDS TO CNN ‘HIT PIECE’ ON HIS MINNESOTA FRAUD INVESTIGATION Shirley, who became a national figure after making videos about fraud in Minnesota and California as he investigated various businesses, blasted the bill during his Friday appearance on Gaines’ show.”Instead of going after the fraudsters, California is going after the people exposing the fraud,” Gaines said as she…

From the wildly popular traveling Van Gogh exhibit to the immersive “King Tut” experience that trades artifacts for hauntingly lit and realistic tableaux, museums everywhere are departing from conventional curated collections to find new ways to engage visitors. At the National Museum of the United States Army at Fort Belvoir, Virginia, staff hope a new augmented-reality exhibit featuring some 20 scenes from the Revolutionary War will create that fresh engagement while also building interest in the rare pieces of war history housed elsewhere in the building.“American Revolution: The Augmented Exhibition,” which opens Saturday at the museum, uses the camera scanning feature of a museum-provided tablet to bring dramatically backlit displays to life. Scenes like the site of the Boston Massacre and Washington’s famous Delaware River crossing are mixed with video game-style period characters and allow visitors to pan the screen for 360-degree navigation of the space. Selecting hot spots on the screen will bring you to the center of a crowd listening to a preacher fomenting revolution or transport you to Thomas Jefferson’s talking head, animated through generative AI.Those seeking a “gamified” experience can select a treasure hunt activity through the various scenes, while those less keen on the immersive…
