Today's Poll Question: Can Federal Prosecutors Force Journalists to Reveal Their Sources?

Today's Poll Question: Can Federal Prosecutors Force Journalists to Reveal Their Sources?

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Is it ever appropriate for federal prosecutors to subpoena journalists to reveal their confidential sources? Federal prosecutors have subpoenaed four New York Times journalists after their reporting raised questions about whether a Qatar-donated Air Force One had adequate security protections. Michael examines the clash between national security investigations and press freedom, including the Justice Department’s shifting media policies, the absence of a federal shield law, and landmark cases involving the Pentagon Papers, Judith Miller, and James Risen. Are reporters simply subject to the same grand jury demands as everyone else—or would forcing them to identify sources cripple investigative journalism and deter whistleblowers? Michael explains the stakes before casting his own vote. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
