A free press, and freedom of speech, are bedrock principles of our nation.
However, the right of free speech and free press does not absolve a person or company from liability to people or property as a result of exercising those freedoms.
Additionally, being a "journalist" does not protect a person or entity from laws restricting the possesion or dissemination of classified government documents or national security related secrets or intellectual property.
Prosecute Poitras and Greenwald. Allowing them to posses and disseminate stolen secret materials is rediculous.
