Any journalist is obtaining a benefit from publishing articles, they are paid for it. That means any whistleblower information that is published by a journalist is sending the journalist to prison, according to that law. That is BAD.

The Texas attorney general is facing whistleblower lawsuits, so I don't think Texas cares much about protecting whistleblowers. I say this as someone who lives in Texas. I could go on and on about Ken Paxton, but don't want to go too far off topic.

The law itself as enforced in this case is clearly illegal, and no one is arguing against that.. Villarreal was not convicted. The question is whether she can sue the officers for even arresting her at all.
