Joan, Once for part of a day I was a cub reporter on the police beat for the Chicago Daily News in 1952. An old timer turned me out and took me to the Central Police Station. There we saw the cops beating up their latest arrests with clubs. I asked him how the cops could be stopped. He said they couldn't be stopped. I asked him what kind of stories our editors expected. Could we tell the truth? He said no way. It wouldn't do any good. And the cops would turn on us. The other reporters laughed at me. It was like a scene from Front Page. The TV cameramen never show the scenes they take that show the real cruelty and horror of life. It wouldn't do any good.
