I'm all for law and order - but a policeman who arrests a journalist for asking a question (which then causes the Secret Service to pull her access credentials) isn't doing their job.

Greenwald's Update VII is an interview with Goodman after her release.
I understand if there's a true riot underway, police may not have time to route legitimate inquiries to their Sargent - but give me a fricking break. This lady poses a threat?
