We spoke to Cowo at a special session the new commissioner of police held with the media. Commish Chester Williams laid out his plans for what he wants to be a comfortable, but not too cozy relationship. And the main thing he wants is a greater degree of reciprocity for the police. Basically, he wants more opportunities for the police to be featured in positive news stories.
And to lead the way, Williams has appointed Douglas Hyde as the Director of Media and Public Relations in his office. Hyde told us what will be the way forward:…
Williams made a number of unilateral declarations about certain areas of non disclosure which will now be practiced in police press briefing. The director of this newsroom put on record his objection to those measures.
