I was shocked to learn that Gina Romero, APD's Director of Community Relations, initiated the strike in her official capacity. On September 2nd, I sent Romero an email informing her I was aware of what she did and asking for an explanation. I copied Municipal Attorney Ava Gardner and Assembly Chair Anna Brawley. My email concluded with, "I'm doing a story on this blatant attack on the First Amendment by the Anchorage Police Department. I'm asking for an explanation of why this copyright claim was filed and if the Anchorage Police Department believes they have the right to silence the press.
