"Meet the Press" host David Gregory asked columnist Glenn Greenwald why he shouldn't be charged with a crime for working with NSA leaker Edward Snowden.
Greenwald, who was on to discuss Snowden's Sunday morning flight from Hong Kong to Moscow. (It is unclear where Snowden will ultimately land, though reports have suggested he is headed to Venezuela.) At the tail end of the conversation, Gregory suddenly asked Greenwald why the government shouldn't be going after him.
"To the extent that you have aided and abetted Snowden, even in his current movements, why shouldn't you, Mr. Greenwald, be charged with a crime?" he asked.
Greenwald replied that it was "pretty extraordinary that anybody who would call themselves a journalist would publicly muse" about such a thing, and that there was no evidence to back up Gregory's claim that he had "aided" Snowden.
Gregory replied that "the question of who's a journalist may be up to debate with regards to what you're doing," but added that he was merely posing a question others have asked, and not taking sides.

(2,916 posts)bubble head -- have been saying for complete info releases they need to meet with the source in order to write the article.
They need get an interpretation of the document that a source is giving before you publish and article -- especially for an article involving that much technical information. It also is good to meet with then to evaluate the credulity of the source. The US government has been trying to intimidated reports by saying meeting with a source before publishing an article is equivalent to collaborating in espionage. And going a long with that interpretation will help destroy the remains of the free press in the US.
Two, there is no ethical issue involved. No one owes a company loyalty. A corporation is an organization for making money. Nothing more. Despite what the supreme court says, a corporation is not a person. If you see a thin ethical balance between supposed loyalty predatory organization and disclosing that every one with a networked device is being constantly monitored you and probably the county is well and truly lost for the next forty years. Anyone how descent can be targeted and imprison using the system Snowden put himself on the line to expose.

Remind me of which court case decided that the bulk collection of the meta-data of phone calls without the names attached to the phone numbers was prohibited by the 4th amendment?
The courts may yet decide this collection of meta-data IS in violation of the 4th, and I REALLY hope that one does ... but until that actually happens ... well, the first two lines of your post are just hyperbole, nothing more.
The law doesn't 'work like that', where random citizens (like you or I) personally just 'get to decide' ... what actions by the authorities are to be regarded as an 'unconstitutional search'.
The courts will decide, just like they have in other controlling cases, which has happened 100's and 100's of times before ... there's just not yet been one decided re: collection of phone call meta-data.
A Simple Game
(9,214 posts)First, there is no court case yet because the agreement was secret, as in nobody knew about it so it couldn't be challenged.
Second, yes the law does work like that, where random citizens get to decide. It's called questioning the legality of a law. Do you think all laws are legal? They aren't but will stay in place until some random citizen is harmed by it and questions it in court. Do you believe after all of the revelations to refute it that the government is only collecting phone numbers? Who is checking this? I think no one is checking this.
Third, yes now that it is known the courts can decide. Until it was leaked nobody knew their rights were being trampled upon. Many suspected but couldn't do anything about it without proof.
Do you really believe they aren't collecting content along with numbers? Do you believe they aren't collecting or at least scanning emails for content? Do you think this forum is being monitored?
If you believe that it is only the phone numbers and it does no harm, why don't you reply to this message with your phone number and see how long it takes for someone to reply with your name and address?
brett_jv
(1,245 posts)Aside from the fact that you (and many like yourself) apparently feel it's appropriate to call the meta-data collection 'illegal and unconstitutional' prior to the court case (to decide the matter) actually happening. And I don't.
And, in fact, I think there's enough OTHER court precedents out there to suggest to me that, assuming we ARE being told the actual truth about it, there is at least a reasonable possibility that the courts may actually uphold the legality of that particular program.
I don't KNOW one way or the other, and neither does anyone else, so ...
But don't get me wrong ... I don't LIKE THAT IT'S HAPPENING one friggin bit. Nor do I 'trust' what the government tells us. Nor do I think we shouldn't raise hell about it.
I just think accusing Obama of running an 'illegal' operation is hyperbolic. It's not been decided either way.
So by all means, lets get it out in the open, and get it decided.
On a related sidenote it's stunning to me how EVERY time I bring this point up ... other posters proceed to put all kinds of friggin words into my 'mouth' ... that are very clearly not on the page.

The "free press" sold out to corporations. Just look at David Gregory. He is nothing more than a stenographer for the right wing.
Who the hell does he think HE is to question whether or not Greenwald is a journalist? Greenwald did an excellent job of smacking down that idiot who dares to question anyone else's journalistic bona fides.

(111,111 posts)The Washington Post and The Guardian are responsible for whatever is printed in their papers. The same could be said about our airwaves.

Good of Gregory to further illustrate the point so many seem to be missing -- the release of information to the American public is not a crime. Withholding information from the American public often is.
Which is the real problem here. These leaks are not "espionage." No "enemy" has received damaging information.
This is government threatening people with criminal prosecution for knowing or disseminating information that might tend to embarrass it.

(20,176 posts)The enemy (David Gregory) of my enemy (Glenn Greenwald) is not necessarily my friend.
It doesn't change my opinion of either of them: Gregory is still a RW toadie masquerading as a real journalist and Greenwald is still shrill nowhere-near-objective propagandist who only reports what reinforces his agenda even if he has to be dishonest or engage in unethical practices to do it. Neither one of them is a real journalist any more than Julian Assange is. I'd sooner expect a fart than the truth from any of them. Let's toss all of the "journalists" and talking heads on TV and in newsprint onto that bonfire.
A pox on all their houses.
It's easy to revile the cancerous plague within modern journalism when you believe the media has no integrity and feels no obligation to the truth or to reporting the news. To paraphrase a great quote about atheism: "I contend that we are both media skeptics. I just believe in fewer journalists than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all other journalists, you will understand why I dismiss yours."

However, this is worth responding to:
"He cashed [Koch brothers] checks while writing position papers for the Cato Institute"
http://ggsidedocs.blogspot.com.br/2013/01/frequently-told-lies-ftls.html
In seven-plus years of political writing, I have written a grand total of twice for Cato: the first was a 2009 report on the success of drug decriminalization in Portugal, and the second was a 2010 online debate in which I argued against former Bush officials about the evils of the surveillance state.
I not only disclosed those writings but wrote about them and featured them multiple times on my blog as it happened: see here and here as but two examples. In 2008, I spoke at a Cato event on the radicalism and destructiveness of Bush/Cheney executive power theories.
That's the grand total of all the work I ever did for or with Cato in my life. The fees for those two papers and that one speech were my standard writing and speaking fees. Those payments are a miniscule, microscopic fraction of my writing and speaking income over the last 7 years. I have done no paying work of any kind with them since that online surveillance debate in 2010 (I spoke three times at Cato for free: once to debate the theme of my 2007 book on the failure of the Bush administration, and twice when I presented my paper advocating drug decriminalization).
If you're going to throw everyone under the bus for speaking at the Cato Institute, then you need to include:

(15,435 posts)Greenwald might/may be over presenting himself (not sure), however DAVID GREGORY isn't my idea of a GREAT JOURNALIST!
Once upon a time, here in America there was something known as "the fourth estate" that actually did "investigate" news. Generally they used sources, more than one for the most part BEFORE they put out the information. IMO, we no longer HAVE a "fourth estate," we have media darlings!! THEY have underlings who contribute information and give it to any given host, who then waits for the camera to roll at which time said host can ask questions in any way he/she chooses. Maybe what "said" host feels will make he/she look serious, important, knowledgeable or present themselves good enough to keep their job.
I'm not giving my opinion on Snowden or Greenwald at this point in time. I've heard it said that Greenwald may be a person who has an inflated ego, but if what he's saying is the truth, so what. But I don't know the whole truth.
I AM more worried about people like Michael Hastings, who I REALLY respect and I DO wonder what really happened to him. I would LOVE to think it was ONLY a freak accident, but somewhere in my gut or in the back of my mind, I'm not so sure.
But, DAVID GREGORY does nothing for me! Seems like the right hand man of John McCain/Lindsey Graham. Who knows?
