> I DO think it's wrong to target bona fide journalists for criminal prosecution based on their reporting. I'm not sure there's any indication that they were really going to prosecute a journalist, though, was there? I know the way the warrants were written probably sounds like it implies that. But I think they were using the fact that the journalist technically broke the law to fish for information about the guy they were really targeting: whoever leaked the info. Now, you might well have a problem with that intent, the current law, or the way they obtained the warrants. But saying that the current administration was actually going to prosecute the journalist seems to me unfounded.
