They don’t mind. They know it’s all for the good of the cause.

So the Denver cops arrested a reporter taking pictures, but wouldn’t arrest the thugs shouting “Kill Michelle Malkin yesterday.”

Maybe there is something in the water.

If this story is true, will the media realize
it is “their beast” that is now eating them alive.

“Police in Denver arrested an ABC News producer today as he and a camera crew were attempting to take pictures on a public sidewalk of Democratic Senators and VIP donors leaving a private meeting at the Brown Palace Hotel. “

This sounds like a 3rd world tactic to intimidate open and healthy news reporting.

“Maybe there is something in the water...”

Actually I think it’s in their DNA.

Thanks for posting the article.


I’m torn on this one.

Wonder if anyone got pictures of the cops arresting the ABC photographer?

And if they got arrested as well.
And if there was someone who videotaped that arrest, and....

Pretty soon, they could have everyone in Denver locked up, if they do it right.

That is a lot of political pull for Cops to push reporters around like that in public. The issue goes nowhere unless ABC makes a big deal about it and sues. They probably would not do that to Democrats.
