"Media Malpractice" documentarian John Ziegler was thrown off the USC campus in southern California Wednesday by security guards.

Ziegler was attempting to interview people attending The Annenberg Norman Lear Center’s excellence in journalism awards ceremony at which CBS’s Katie Couric was to be honored for her "Evening News" segments with Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

Unfortunately, the good folks at USC didn’t want Ziegler to speak with anyone, and physically escorted him off campus in handcuffs (video embedded below the fold, h/t Hot Air):

Ziegler: I’m being handcuffed for standing on a sidewalk asking questions outside of an awards ceremony on journalism excellence. You can’t get more irony than this!

No, you can’t!
