NYT Tips off Terroists Front to Raid | |
2004-09-29 | |
The Justice Department has charged that a veteran New York Times foreign correspondent warned an alleged terror-funding Islamic charity that the FBI was about to raid its office potentially endangering the lives of federal agents. The stunning accusation was disclosed yesterday in legal papers related to a lawsuit the Times filed in Manhattan federal court. The suit seeks to block subpoenas from the Justice Department for phone records of two of its Middle Eastern reporters Philip Shenon and Judith Miller as part of a probe to track down the leak. The Times last night flatly denied the allegation.

#7 I want to see the editor of the rag known as the "New Yourk Times", explain the nuances of the first amendment, to the relatives of anyone killed by a terrorist attack, perpitrated by individuals involved in this incident. In a closed room. |

#6 A free press doesn't include treason or sedition. We don't have a free press. We have enemy propagandists masquerading as a free press. |

#5 What I would like to know also is how and from where Shenon got the information in the first place. |

#4 You know, if anyone o these terrorists get away or off because of this, then I want to see the editor of the rag known as the "New Yourk Times", explain the nuances of the first amendment, to the relatives of anyone killed by a terrorist attack, perpitrated by individuals involved in this incident. |

#3 A much more effective solution would be for the FBI to name the reporters and say that they were cooperating fully in the investigation of the terror cell. |

#2 If this is true they should be in jail. A free press doesn't include treason or sedition. |
