Imprisoned journalist denied new hearing
"A federal appeals court denied a new hearing Thursday to Josh Wolf, an activist and freelance journalist who has been in prison nearly three months for refusing to provide a grand jury with outtakes of videos he shot at a San Francisco protest....
"Wolf, 24, took videos of a July 2005 anarchist demonstration in the Mission District against an overseas economic summit. Some of his footage was shown on local television, but federal prosecutors have demanded the outtakes, saying they might contain evidence for a grand jury investigation of an alleged attempt to burn a police car."
