Just before she died, Joan Meyer, a newspaperwoman since 1953, said this about a police raid on her
Kansas home: “These are Hitler tactics and something has to be done.”

The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and more than 30 news organizations, including The New York Times, Dow Jones and The Washington Post, have written to the chief of the Police Department to condemn its raid on the Marion County Record:

@Kinnison That and a buck fifty will get you a cup of coffee. The government will need to step in before those people care. Threat of arrest and/major monetary type fines are the only thing they pay attention to, and even those don’t stop them because so far no one has forced them to comply.

@cjcrew

oh, believe me, the DOJ and the KS DA are already investigating. Clear violation of journalistic rights, and even a possible wrongful death

might take a year, but I can see the Police, Judge and the Restaurant owner facing jail time and fines by the end of this

@Kinnison I hope you’re right. One of them needs to be held accountable for their criminal behavior. I want to see some punishment!
