It isn't often that the Denver media is criticized for being too tough, but I guess anti-tax bully Douglas Bruce is starting to feel picked on:

"The media up here is much more aggressive and much less courteous than the media in Colorado Springs," Bruce told 9News.

Bruce now says that when he kicked a photographer from the Rocky Mountain News, it was  "just a tap," which I guess he sees as acceptable behavior on the floor of the Colorado Legislature. During a prayer.
