Steve Baker: (Grok generated) Steve Baker is an investigative journalist known for his work with Blaze Media, a conservative news outlet. Born on April 27, 1968, in Louisiana, he grew up in Shreveport and later settled in Raleigh, North Carolina. Baker has a background in music, performing as a trumpeter and vocalist for Bull City Syndicate, and has two children, Stormie and Duncan. He gained attention for his coverage of the January 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol riot, during which he was present as a freelance journalist, later selling footage to outlets like The New York Times and HBO. In March 2024, he was arrested by the FBI and charged with four misdemeanor counts related to his actions at the Capitol, including trespassing and disorderly conduct. Baker pleaded guilty to these charges in November 2024 but expressed confidence in receiving a pardon from former President Donald Trump, who issued pardons to many January 6 defendants in January 2025. His arrest sparked debate, with supporters claiming it was an attack on press freedom, while critics pointed to his sympathetic statements toward the rioters as evidence of bias.
