By Dave Lindorff

Police cracking down on media at Occupy Wall Street

Not only are police cracking down on the Occupy movement protesters but also on journalist. According to some reporters police have denied them access to cover the Occupy movement.

Amid The Architecture Of Declining Capitalism

Memes, Death Genes And Real Estate Schemes

By Phil Rockstroh

People are catching on to the machinations of the 1%, to the scams of crime syndicates such as Wall Street and the IMF, to the means by which we have been coerced, by debt enslavement to neoliberalism s global company store, into spending the fleeting days of this finite life working for the inequitable power, wealth and privilege of these ruthless few.

Caught on Camera: Ten Shockingly Violent Police Assaults on Occupy Protesters

Joshua Holland, AlterNet: 'Probably 97 percent of police act professionally toward protesters. But the other 3 percent are armed and dangerous, and know that they are unlikely to be held accountable?. When a cop loses his or her cool, it can be terrifying. And when a protester exercising his or her right to assemble and speak is a victim of excessive force, it also violates the United States Constitution. Unlike protesters, cops are also armed, and it s difficult to hold them accountable for their actions when they don t behave professionally. But, as Donna Lieberman, executive director of the New York Civil Liberties Union told AlterNet last month, ?public video recording has dramatically changed the landscape of police accountability, no question about it. It s a lot harder for police to sweep allegations of abuse under the rug when it s on video and on YouTube.'
