Ethics of police shooting at journalist during the interview with a rubber bullet @ Standing Rock?
I've heard of power régimes around the world targeting news reporters but I didn't think that would happen here - while interviewing a person. Erin Schrode was shot point-blank by police rubber bullet near Cantapeta Creek in Standing Rock, North Dakota, on Nov. 2 2016 She was nowhere near the protectors, who were standing in freezing water to protest. Sheriff’s statement addresses police use of “less-than-lethal ammunition” in the form of rubber bullets.
