That's because Alameda County's elected district attorney, Pamela Price, refused to let me into her official press conference this morning.
As a veteran Bay Area reporter who has been in journalism for 20 years, covering many institutions and agencies, I have never experienced anything like it.
Here's my first-person account.
This was disturbing to say the least and I'm in touch with several First Amendment and journalism organizations about it. I will certainly report back.
