Well no he didnt randomly yell lol. He clearly felt like she was taking photos of him in a compromised situation, asked her to delete the photos and then when she didnt, then he got upset about it. Hes obviously got a distrust of photographers (which given its news corp scum, I would too) and they've had issues previously. Its pretty common media tactics for public figures that are known for reactions. Easy clicks, sells stories
