Biden Press Office Apologizes For Demanding Student Journalist Delete Photographs

ROCKVILLE, Md. (CBSDC) – Vice President Joe Biden’s press office has apologized to the University of Maryland following “pure intimidation” demands for a student journalist to delete photos he took of a domestic violence event featuring Biden.

College Park Patch reports that a credentialed student from the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland, Jeremy Barr, was snapping photos at the Rockville event when a Biden staffer began interrogating the student.

“Did you take any photos during the event,” Barr said he was asked by Biden staffer Dana Rosenzweig. “I need to see your camera right now,” she reportedly said after Barr confirmed he had taken photographs of the event that also featured Attorney General Eric Holder and Maryland Sen. Ben Cardin.

Might as well be Nikita Khrushchev's staff.
This regime doesn't give a crap about the Constitution.
Therefore NEITHER do the people that support them.
You know who you are and they make you look like idiots.

Wow. Way to take advantage of a young person who doesn't know any better. I am glad the Dean filed a complaint and I hope she institutes some training sessions so the student journalists know how to defend themselves in situations like this.

Just goes to show you the incompetence of Bidens staff. I guess she thinks we are living in a communist country. Perfect example of a "well educated" person that is an ignoramus.

Did she get fired like she deserves?

I wouldn't have shown her anything unless she had a warrant. And if she had tried to take my camera I would had decked her.

Fine time to "apologize" to save face from upending the Constitution you swore to uphold, now that the pics are gone?
