Today in Ferguson, following the arrest of two journalists police continued their all out assault on the town's citizens.
Since the killing of Michael Brown, protests have taken place throughout the town, which has a population of around 21,000. Many of the major networks were not airing live coverage of the events happening in Missouri. Journalist on the scene of the protests are even getting arrested.
Thanks to livestream, viewers have watched as police fired rubber bullets into crowds no-violent protestors. Police advanced on a group of peaceful demonstrators as the cameras rolled. I Am Mike Brown livestream reported police were demanding that they turn off their cameras. "Because they don't want witnesses," the reporter said. This definitely echoes the experience of Huffington Post reporter Ryan Reilly, who was arrested earlier in the day after a SWAT team invaded the McDonald's he was working out of. When he took a photo, an officer demanded to see his ID. Reilly was then assaulted and arrested, along with Washington Post reporter Wesley Lowery.
