A reporter on Nov. 12 pleaded guilty to four charges stemming from entering the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, as protesters and rioters interrupted the congressional certification of the 2020 election results.

Steve Baker of Blaze Media, which was founded by Glenn Beck after he left Fox News, pleaded guilty to entering and remaining in a restricted building, engaging in disorderly conduct with intent to impede government business, disturbing Congress, and parading in a Capitol building. Baker had previously pleaded not guilty to the four counts, all of which are misdemeanors.
