Title: Concerns over Flock Cameras in Maryland
Runtime: 2:39
Date posted: 1 month ago
Description: In Maryland, there are 1,008 surveillance cameras (flock cameras) in operation, with the highest concentrations in Salisbury (72), Baltimore City (56), Frederick (44), Annapolis (38), and Hagerstown (24). MPT reporter Nancy Yamada interviews Senator Clarence Lam, who plans to introduce legislation during the next session to regulate these cameras, an initiative that appears to have bipartisan support. Retired Deputy Sheriff and Senator William Folden advocates for laws defining clear access protocols and usage rules. Questions remain about how long data is stored, who can access it, and whether the information could be improperly monetized by third-party vendors.

Now, 30 years later, Camden Yards is a monument to ballpark design — modern, yet classic, a throwback and turning point in urban and sports architecture. This is the story of the people and events behind the building of the ballpark and the many obstacles along the way.

"Creating Camden Yards" is a production by students and faculty of The Shirley Povich Center for Sports Journalism at the University of Maryland’s Philip Merrill College of Journalism.
