Station forced to hand over tape of Sox riot

WCAX, a television station in Vermont which held on to footage it had shot of a celebration which took place after the Red Sox's World Series win and soon escalated into a riot, has finally chosen to acquiesce and hand the tape over to the authorities. Of course, when I say "chosen to" I should have said "was forced to." It seems bosses at WCAX claimed there was no legal reason to hand over the tape, but the Vermont Supreme Court stepped in and said otherwise. The tape will be used as evidence.
