Reportedly there is a discussion entitled "State Scanner Laws - Going
Too Far?" ongoing somewhere online. Anyone know where?
------------
PBS - NOW (TV show) - excessive secrecy in Washington DC - aired on 12
Dec 2003 on TV2 in Boston - government agencies are refusing to release
any info on anything that is remotely tied to security
----------
CFLG list - news reports in Orlando Florida are excessively lame because
they dont want to scare the tourists, and most viewers are low income
entertainment industry workers - there are higher incomes and more media
competition in the Miami area
----------
SoCalScan list - Orange County Sheriff scandal just broke on TV2 - high
ranking PD officer had incident involving son pulled off CAD system so
it would be hid from media - this was captured on a taped phone
conversation (possibly an I-Call) - Orange County CA encrypts all PD
comms
----------
DFWScan - discussion of role of videographers at emergency scenes, and
public access to public safety radio comms
----------
ChicagoCARMA list (or is it CARMAchicago?) - discussuin of using list
