The reporters should tell the court to go to hell, and serve their time with pride. Anonymous sources can be misused but secret sources are sometimes necessary when a government acts in secrecy, particularly those times when its secrecy is not the product of necessity but of self-interest.

I agree, are they reporters or journalists? We'll see.

Completely disagree. We already have whistleblower laws to protect legitimate whistleblowers. But we also have liberal career civil servants committing near treason in their attempts to undermine this administration for political reasons. The 'anonymous source' technique appears to have been greatly abused and manipulated (and in some cases falsified) by agenda-driven reporters.
