Join the International Community of the Society of Professional Journalists as we talk about this with Timothy Myers, an award-winning Australian cinematographer based in Los Angeles. He is currently nominated for a Kennedy Excellence in Journalism Award for his coverage of the Washington DC protests with foreign correspondent Amelia Brace, where his images of the controversial June 1st clearing of peaceful protesters from Lafayette Square by an overly aggressive Police force, were regarded around the world as a violation of constitutional rights, and an infringement on press freedoms.
