Immense gratitude for @SusanESeager at @UCIrvineIPAT, Dan Stormer and Colleen Flynn who defended against this lawsuit from day 1.
STATEMENT RE: LAPD PHOTO SETTLEMENT
LA is no stranger to elected officials abusing their power. @cityattorneyLA Hydee Feldstein Soto has joined the evergrowing list of corrupt politicians.

.@SupJaniceHahn do you also stand with @bencamach0, who is currently being sued by @CityAttorneyLA in a public records case that could have dangerous repercussions for *all* journalists?
The layoffs that hit the @LongBeachPost and @LBBizJourn last week, shortly after workers announced they had formed a union, are deeply concerning.
I stand with the @LBMGuild, and I urge management to recognize this union and bargain in good faith to address the staff’s concerns.

If you really believe in the importance of journalism, you’ll drop your 2 lawsuits against Ben Camacho, a freelance reporter who did nothing but receive and publish photos that your office gave him & stop lobbying the legislature to make public employee identities secret.

.@RepHankJohnson at a presser on the RAP ACT, legislation he is re-introducing that would prevent artists’ lyrics from being used against them in criminal trials. The YSL trial underway in Atlanta is a real world example of why he says it’s needed. – at Washington, DC
