Media crybabies. This has absolutely NOTHING to do with the Bill of Rights. What it has to do with is reporters shoving cameras and microphones into the faces of folks that just suffered a tradgedy and asking "How does it feel?". The media cares not about emergancies, it only cares about ratings, and blood gets ratings. The sooner you show up, the better chance you have at getting blood on film.

They should take the radios. Now Action News is saying they are not giving them the proper info needed. I can say the same for Action News. Just this week they reported the dog that was choked had died. That is not true. The have an news anchor in the morning news that can't pronounce words correct and then let her work and report on children. Let's clean our own house before we ask someone else to clean theirs.

Not only are they taking away the radios, they are also scrambling the signal, anyone remember "Ruby Ridge"?

Reject a system of checks and balances and you begin the rejection of the Bill of Rights.

So now reporters will have to do real work now and investigate stories. If you can pull up DOT cam then why do you need JSO to tell you about traffic on a bridge. Plus as slow of traffic was moving on the bridge, it did not matter how many lanes ere open or closed. Was the footage you looked at from the time of the incident or several hours later when report was released by JSO? Also you are griping about a space in a street name? Well Google found the address no problem with the space. I guess that would have required too much work and knowledge on your reporters part. You could not find any real examples of a risk to public safety?

It sounds like the sheriff does not want us to know what is going on and wants to let us be in the dark. I agree the public should not have access to the private channels. I had a scanner that would pick up any channel I programed in, except those that were block for special police and fire department's use He is sounding to me that he is two faced, and had to stumble with his answers to your questions. Oh well he is your sheriff not mine thank God.

It is not the media's right to have every little detail of what goes on at their time of choosing. I am no fan of the police and some of the actions they have taken over the years. But the media should stop trying to use scare tactics to get the citizens of Jacksonville to come to your side of this situation. Frankly, it isn't your business.
