Consider once again the case of Rodney King, the motorist who was beaten severely by the Los Angeles police. One of the most important aspects of this case has received virtually no attention: the widespread purchase of camcorders by ordinary citizens has turned everyone into potential investigative reporters. The invention and distribution of camcorders has not only allowed people to record pictures of their personal friends and families, but it has also allowed them to record events once open only to professional photographers, news reporters, documentary film makers, and so on. Thus, how the police once behaved "back stage" in the relative comfort, security, and privacy (bounded space) of their station houses, or on isolated streets, is no longer exempt from widespread public scrutiny. Back-stage events (private space) have now become front-stage revelations. Indeed, they are now the subject of prime-time news shows around the world.
