Parks police block journalists from covering White House protest

The U.S. Parks Police have accepted responsibility for blocking journalists from covering a protest in front of the White House staged by gay war veterans, POLITICO reported.

"That was strictly the U.S. Parks Police that screwed up – that has nothing to do with the Secret Service of the White House or the Administration," Sergeant David Schlosser told POLITICO.

The veterans, who served in Iraq, were protesting the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.
