arresting journalist in Wi

What were their credentials? Did they have something on their bodies that identified them as press?

I think not.

You're referring to a 'press pass'. Depending on the event and the venue, they're easy to get hold of. You don't necessarily need to be a professional journalist to get one. You just contact the venue or event organizers and ask them.

Real journalists - the ones who have a degree, and work for an actual media outlet instead of some dumpsite - they have their own credentials; issued by the media outlet they work for, they are also usually members of a professional institution which may also provide them with credentials.

This explosion of unprofessional hacks in the industry might be convenient for hacksites, but it is very damaging to the profession. More's the pity.... they're destroying what was once a well respected and honorable profession.

I agree...And IF the media was really doing their jobs [The Fourth Estate], and the perception of them being political shills? We wouldn't have these problems. I wonder though, If this will cause the 'FourthEstate' to re-examine their true purpose a-la the First Amendment?

*NAH* Nevermind...;)
 
They were creditialed jouranlists.

You refer to Sam Mayfield, right?

I got news for ya. She/He is not on the list of credentialed journalists in the United States of America. This I know, because I'm a member of the site, and I searched her name and it ain't there.

You're wrong. I'm right.

*Bows*
 
I wonder if this had anything to do with it.

Wishing the death of a governor, just like they did Bush, and left act like they are peaceful? Bullshit, they did the same thing to Bush. Here they are burning bush in effigy, have you seen Conservatives do this to Obama yet? No you have not.

And you wonder why they had to be aggressive with leftist so called reporters. Law Enforcement has to take the threat of our politicians seriously, that is why the dumbass fake press got rocked, you dumb libtards.

Creditialed? :eusa_eh:

Anyway, we established that you said they have credentials. I asked you what they were.

Yeah, I know what a press pass is, Cali...I know they're easy to get but my point was if this person wasn't wearing one that's recognized by the cops, they wouldn't pass muster.


Lots of loons claim to be the press who aren't.

So again, TM..what ARE the credentials?
