Joe-the-Cop et al

thought to repost this censorship oldy but goody … Frank Sennett, editor-in-chief of Time Out Chicago, was (and still seems) like the proverbial hypocritical schmuck.

Whew. Yesterday was a day on ChicagoNow. I don’t know if you were a part of it, but there was a huge fight brewing. If you missed the shouting match over Joe the Cop’s post, “CTA Red line Shooting: The Ghetto Shooting Template,” we’ll recap it for you.

A few days ago, Joe the Cop, police officer and ChicagoNow blogger wrote a few pieces on the recent shooting of 19 year-old George Lash by police on an El train. You can’t read the post that made everyone so angry – the big wigs at ChicagoNow decided to take it down.

oh, and it seems that it has been reposted all over the internet so that it’s not forgotten…
