Excellent report as usual, Zombie. Great job getting pictures, and staying on top of things, especially when you managed to keep up with the torch’s actual location as much as the police would allow. Sprinting that far on the hope of getting to the torch before it’s too late (And you got an excellent shot of it, too) takes dedication, which is the mark of a true journalist.
I too found it interesting that in this case, you wound up on the same side as the lefty protestors who you normally oppose on their other protests. It’s kind of like how on some action/superhero TV shows, there are episodes in which the hero has to temporarily join forces with one of his enemies to stand against a bigger, common threat (i.e. the X- Men having to team up with Magneto’s crew to fight Apocalypse or something).
Keep up the good work, and if you’re able to, I’d love it if you could possibly go to Denver in August to cover the DNC protests, those should present a ripe opportunity to give an awesome report.
