Media Blocked from Fire Coverage

LA Times Photojournalist Gina Ferazzi posted that police were stopping the media from trying to cover another LA area wildfire.

Yet, it appears that a crew from A&E was given full clearance to move about as they wanted.

Now, who at the cop shop thought this was a good idea?

Freedom of the press anyone?

Sadly, this is one of those situations where the police chief will come out later and say that it was a mistake and the media should have been allowed in.

Problem is, the story is now over and the media was kept out from doing their job.
