MUST-SEE: DENVER COPS BULLY MEDIA

SHUTTING OUT THE MEDIA - Here we go again, this time in Denver. Denver police put a choke hold on ABC News reporter Asa Eslocker as he was standing on a public sidewalk in front of the Brown Palace Hotel. He was working on a story about Democratic senators and VIP donors as they were leaving a private meeting. This is stunning. ABC reports that one of the officers can be heard saying to Eslocker, "You're lucky I didn't knock the f..k out of you." You can see the video for yourself. Chicago police have harassed citizen journalists in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood, on more than one occasion. One of those occasions involved fellow citizen journalist Craig Gernhardt and me - and it was caught on video, too (below).
