Two newspapers have also refused to let the police question their journalists, because it’s not specified why they want to interview them, and given that they won’t name sources, questioning becomes pointless.
- duxup 5y agoDo those requests usually go through a newspaper and not to the individual?
- hutzlibu 5y agoMaybe, but since it is work related, the individual journalist can still informs their newspaper and lawers who can take action.

- mrweasel 5y agoNo, they go to the individual, as explained in a debate on Danish TV yesterday. The journalists then bring the information to their employeers, which call their lawyers and handle the matter from there. The journalists aren’t legally required to allow themselfs to be questioned. That’s only if the case goes to court, but no one is refusing to testify in that case, because then the charges are public and a judge is present.
