The Moret case is awful but he is a foreign national, and he is an editor and publisher, not simply a journalist. Craig Murray is not simply (or perhaps really) a journalist; his constant tangles with the intelligence establishment have little to do with his writing and very much more to do with his antagonistic relationship with the British state during his former career: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Murray https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Murray I have a lot of time for how he thinks and what he's achieved but he's a campaigner, not a journalist. The point is reasonable: journalists don't tend to attract individual attention from the intelligence services. Their editors and publishers do, but that is to be expected due to their specific role in publication and is often appropriate; I am quite sure state security apparatus the world over quietly leans on publishers, including in the USA.
