Finally, Sunshine in California Prisons - NOT!
On Saturday, for the third year in a row, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed legislation that would have allowed news reporters the kind of run-of-the-mill access to interview prison inmates available in many other states.
Schwarzengger---who has been criticized for a troubled prison system plagued with overcrowding, medical care problems and high recidivism rates---said that the bill, sponsored by state senator Gloria Romero, would glamorize murderers and distress crime victims and their families, writes the Associated Press.
