It's Becoming a Pattern

In class, we have discussed many occasions where independent journalists have been arrested unjustly. From Amy Goodman and her Democracy Now! team to writers to countless other examples. The police consistently use the same excuse, "they did not show their credentials."But aren't they strung around their necks in plain view?

Another example popped up on Wednesday out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The Occupy protests seem to be a prime spot for independent journalists to be detained.
