As
UN
Bans Press
Work from
UNSC, Camera
Installed Over
FUNCA Door
By

UNITED
NATIONS, May
22 -- "Is that
a camera they
put over your
office door?"
The question
was put to
Inner City
Press at the
UN at the end
of the work
day on
Wednesday.
Back on
the third
floor of the
UN Secretariat
Building, lo
and behold
there was a
black security
camera over
the door of
Inner City
Press and the
Free UN
Coalition for
Access. See
tweeted
photo here.
A
quick survey
of the rest of
the third
floor found no
other security
camera in the
press area. Video here, embedded below.
Not in
front of the
large office
of Reuters,
whose Louis
Charbonneau
has thrice stealthy
complained
to the UN,
once
threatening to
leave the UN
where he is a
convenient
pass-through
unless Inner
City Press was
thrown out.
Now in
2013 there is
a single
security
camera on the
third floor
press area:
over the door
of Inner City
Press and the
new Free UN
Coalition for
Access. Both
have
complained:
watch this
site.
