Do what thy manhood bids thee do,
From none but self expect applause:
He noblest lives and noblest dies
Who makes and keeps his self-made laws."
~ Sir Richard Francis Burton
Supreme Court Refuses to Take Reporter’s Case on Revealing Confidential Source
Submitted by Emmett Harris on Mon, 2014-06-02 23:00
“A district judge had said Risen did not have to testify. But a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit in Richmond disagreed in a 2 to 1 decision. The majority said that under Supreme Court precedent, the First Amendment does not protect reporters from revealing who supplied them with unauthorized leaks.” Authorized leaks (propaganda to you and me) must be just fine, ensuring citizens know only what their overlords allow.
