I would like to make a point using the old Superman movie, where he did fight for the American way and what is going on with the war today and the NY Times. In the first Movie with Christopher Reeves, lois lane interviews Superman and gives away the secret that he can't see through lead and Lex Luthor reads this in the paper and uses it to trap Superman, nearly killing him by encasing Kryptonie in a lead lined box.

..but but but...lois represented the MSM and as everybody knows,the people have a right to know, the editor of the daily planet needed to sell papers, to boost his stock options, and and and Superman was too powerful and poor Lex was at a disadvantage, besides todays Superman is much better about social issues and Lex really didn't mean to hurt anyone....NOW DON'T YOU FEEL BETTER?

And in the real world, one of the Kansas City TV news stations publicized the fact that the KCPD was trying to track a serial killer by his cell phone. It was known that the murderer watched TV news reports, because just after the news, he'd call in with more information, or instructions on where to find the bodies. That stopped once the news station informed the killer that he was being tracked by his cell phone.

Yes, but didn't Superman willfully and openly provide this information? I don't recall him ever requesting that Lois not publish it. IIRC, he didn't protest as she wrote it down on her notepad.
