Most detailed account of police brutality during G8 protests I've seen yet and it's from the Wall Street Journal - what's going on?
(I checked to see if this article really is from the Wall Street Journal - it is.)

You should always glance through the business section. Even if it's always biased to another side, they are much more reliable at at least *mentioning* all sorts of significant stuff that doesn't make it to the front page, where it would have to compete with human interest stories and street crime news. The investors want to know what's going on and they will pay to get that news. Noam Chomsky has talked about this a lot.
