He wasn't indicted for journalism. He was indicted fo helping Bradley Chelsea Manning break into a computer.

But if it makes US journos **** their pants, how is it a bad thing?

Correct. And the key word is ‘indicted’

He, and Snowden are innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt.

We often lose site of that crucial aspect of the law...I sure hope to hang onto it if I’m ever indicted for anything

You’re confusing the indictments here. What you’re describing was the original indictment that was announced a few weeks ago. These are different charges. And since these charges will almost certainly not hold up in court, I really have to wonder what the DOJ’s angle is here.
