“Government crackdowns on journalists are a true threat to democracy. As the Republican National Convention meets in St. Paul, Minn., this week, police are systematically targeting journalists. I was arrested with my two colleagues, ‘Democracy Now!’ producers Sharif Abdel Kouddous and Nicole Salazar, while reporting on the first day of the RNC. I have been wrongly charged with a misdemeanor. My co-workers, who were simply reporting, may be charged with felony riot.” (09/04/08) Link: http://tinyurl.com/6o59oq Filed under: LAND Commentary and PND Commentary and RRND Commentary | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
