Judge Stops Justice Dept from Targeting Journalists | Charlotte News
Description
The Justice Department’s aggressive bid to force journalists to reveal sources over Air Force One reporting hit a wall—Judge Arun Subramanian called their tactics “turned the law on its head,” threatening sanctions and forcing the government to back down after subpoenas targeted reporters’ relatives. The Times fought back, exposing the administration’s bad faith and regulatory violations, while the judge made it clear: protecting sources is non-negotiable under the First Amendment. The government’s retreat underscores that overreach won’t fly—even when it’s cloaked in secrecy.
