Police in Miami announced yesterday plans to embed
reporters in police squads during the upcoming protests
against the Free Trade Area Of the Americas.
Police chief John Timony says he wants to bring journalists
to the front lines of the protest.
The journalists will be required to have a riot helmet
and gas mask.
Timony gained national attention in 2000 when he served
as police chief in Philadelphia during the Republican
National Convention.
