Overview

The blue wall of silence is a term the media uses when they lack the details of a police story. They attribute their plight to a shady-sounding concept intended to arouse suspicion. From the police commissioner to the guy handing out parking tickets, they conspire to hide the truth from the public. It sounds good on paper, but it's nonsense. How do you keep a secret in an organization with forty thousand employees? The NYPD's blue wall of silence is a work of fiction perpetuated by lazy journalists who don't know the inner workings of America's largest police department. Cops talk all the time.
