Since the NY Times made no allegation of criminal wrong doing when they published the story it would seem to me that this statute applies. But will our wobbly government have the jewels to prosecute?

The NYT picks up where PRAVDA left off.

[tomzz]

That's GGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooood.

My actual prefeence for the ****heads running the NY Times would be something along the lines of an auto de fe, but I'd settle for hanging them for treason.

[afnamvet]

Enforcement falls to the Executive branch of government.

IMO, there is no will in Washington to prosecute the NY Times.

The Slimes knows that there'll be no legal action taken.The bloodshed in such a battle would make Billy Bob's impeachment look like a Sunday picnic in comparison.

And the battle would last for years!

Is the NY Times in violation of Title 18, section 798 of US Criminal Code?

That's what I have been saying in multiple threads for the past four days:

Hello? Mr. Attorney General? Are you lurking out there?

[Cobra64]

Now that's a silly question.

[Cicero]

Yes, there's no question that the two reporters in question, Bill Keller, and Pinch Sulzberger are guilty of treason.

And by condoning and excusing their actions, the President of the United States is becoming complicit in their treason. He is assenting to it. He is encouraging them to do it again. He is failing in his sworn duty to uphold the law and defend our country against its enemies.

Good find.

No ... the Bush administration are non-confrontational when it comes to domestic issues. They are completely bamboozled when it comes to the liberal mainstream media in this country ... they roll over every time.

bump!

 

When the founders granted 'The Press' special dispensation, they never considered the possibility that traitors in our midst would game the system. But that is precisely what is happening today. (Hate America? Support jihad? Become a 'journalist!')

This was bound to happen.

The premise behind the First Amendment as it applies to the press--that a vigilant watchdog is necessary, sufficient--indeed, possible--to protect against man's basest instincts--is tautologically flawed: The fox guarding the White House, if you will....

Quick answer based upon what you posted is probably no unless the program falls under communications intelligence and I don't think it does.

[TheLion]

Since nobody seems concerned, we will only encourage more of it. Someone needs to put the screws to this asap!

[Gone GF]

And the WST gets off? They published the same morning.

[Gone GF]

Make that the WSJ. Sorry.
