Boston Police 2.0: What does the public lose in information as the department upgrades its digital presence?

Howard Friedman is quoted in this article by Ed Mason on Bostonmagazine.com. The article describes how the Boston Police Department has not published an annual report since 2010, and now favors Twitter, Facebook, and websites to share information with the public. The annual reports were a great tool for accountability because they compiled data and statistics about many aspects of policing, including citizens’ complaints about police misconduct.
