Reporter’s Notebook – Journalists blocked in Milwaukee, Jay Johnson misconduct report, Public interest vs victim privacy

Every week on Reporter’s Notebook, WTMJ’s Adam Roberts talks with members of the WTMJ newsroom, as well as reporters from other outlets, to get the full picture when it comes to the stories they choose to tell.

On this week’s episode, we analyze video taken by The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel’s Mary Spicuzza of herself and her colleague David Clarey being denied entry into a veterans roundtable event led by Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Tom Tiffany.

Also, WTMJ’s Elizabeth Lintonen breaks down a new 700-plus page internal probe by the City of Greenfield into allegations of misconduct against Police Chief Jay Johnson, we explore a Brown County judge’s decision to deny a motion permanently sealing evidence in the Josh Jacobs battery case, and dig into the latest news on a potential Milwaukee professional football expansion team.
