      who wanted the source? government ?

      fuck that, never narc on anyone.

      death before dishonor, its what I live by.

      Often times I wonder why
      There's love and hate, theres live or die.
      When sickness comes I must decide:
      When feelings go, theres suicide.

        If a reporter knew of a nuclear bomb in downtown LA but refused to divulge which terrorist organization was behind the bomb or when it would be detonated, would it then be ok to prosecute the reporter? And if so, why?

              You have no credibility. You can stop replying to me as you will not get any sort of rise from me. You're too stupid to even affect me. Cheers.

                they would probably classify that as an act of treason and use the homeland security act to pull some bullshit out of their asses and charge you with 234234 things.

                I dont know about the other case so I cannot compare the situations but I assume your scenario is pretty far fetched compared to the situation discussed here.

                  I don't care what "they" think or do. I'm asking what YOU think.

                  So what do you think? Is one persons individual rights more important than the rights of millions of others?

                  I have no idea what Brad is talking about, this is just something I thought of and am now wondering what you guys think.

                    Sly,
                    Are you asking according to law what should happen?
                    According to law they don't need to say shit.

                    In a country that doesn't put up with bullshit, the reporter would be tortured, have loved ones killed in front of them until they gave up the source.
                    Russia knew where it was at.

                        if a person knew a nuclear bomb was going to go off downtown in the middle of a major US city and they refused to name who was behind it and/or when it was going to go off, I believe they have that right not to say shit.

                        take the answer with them to the death. not everyone who dies is innocent, some people are better off dead. sure millions of innocent people will die but its just part of a cycle that will never be stopped. everyone dies some day so what does it really matter if they die a natural or unnatural way? sure, familes will be destroyed, children left motherless/fatherless, trillions of dollars of damage, city turned into a toxic waste land, but thats the price they pay for living in the country which is the #1 super power.

                        many many countries/people hate the US but cannot do anything about it because they simply lack the resources and finances that would be required to scale a successful attack against the US.

                                      I think you all need to go read the article and base your statements on fact not just what you believe happened in this case.

                                        Seems funny that the person who actually spilled the beans, Bob Novak is not in trouble. Could it be because he is an ultra conservative?

                                        Yet the journalist from the liberal NY times, gets thrown in the slammer.

                                        Man I am just waiting for the house of cards to start falling.

                                          If you're talking about the deal with the CIA guy.. seems the reports are that it was Karal Rove as the source.. Now wouldn't that be the shit.
                                          In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                                            LOL let me get this straight you are mad because they jailed a reporter for not divulging which person in the White House(most likely a Republican) leaked a CIA operatives name? So you disagree with protecting the Republican source is this correct?

                                                    wow bradm, did you cut and paste that story directly from cnn?

                                                    sly pretty much owned anyone in the thread that made an assumption without hearing the scenario.

                                                      You obviously have no idea what is going on. Reporters sources were confidential, otherwise there would be no news to report. Nobody should be in jail for not tattling on someone because they government decides that they want the source this time.
