On Monday, the Los Angeles Press Club and the investigative reporting site Status Coup filed a lawsuit against the city of Los Angeles and the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department in federal court, alleging that officers at the demonstrations are routinely violating journalists’ rights.
“Being a journalist in Los Angeles is now a dangerous profession,” states the complaint, filed in the Western Division of the Central District of California. “LAPD unlawfully used force and the threat of force against Plaintiffs, their members and other journalists to intimidate them and interfere with their constitutional right to document public events as the press.”
And a British journo got a rubber round put through his leg in a similar thing, from what I understand.
