New Orleans judge files police complaint against CBS affiliate
Original: New Orleans judge files police complaint against CBS affiliate over reporting
A New Orleans judge has filed a police complaint against a local CBS affiliate over its reporting, according to the Guardian. The move sets up a potential clash between the judiciary and the press over how the station covered the judge, and it is drawing attention to questions about press freedom and the limits of judicial recourse against news organisations.
Why now: A sitting judge turning to police against a news outlet raises press freedom concerns.
