Satirical news report investigates John Lewis' district

Despite President-elect Donald Trump tweeting that Ga. Rep. John Lewis' 5th congressional district is "falling apart" and "crime-ridden," that part of Atlanta is fine. No, really. Just ask the people who live there.

Annalise Kaylor, whose Facebook page lists her as a photojournalist and photographer, decided to take matters into her own hands and investigate the 5th district herself, tongue firmly in cheek and satire levels set to 11. The results are what you’d expect.

As of this writing, the video has gone viral with more than 176,000 views and 2,700 shares.
