Jeff Sessions goes after the Media - Good Idea - Bad Idea

[CaseHardened]

Jeff Sessions gets slammed over Justice Department plan to cramp down on leaks

AG Jeff Sessions wishes to find and prosecute the LEAKERS/TRAITORS who are illegally releasing information to the Media.

Maybe even prosecute the Media itself - though I'm not sure the AG actually said THAT.

The liberal scum are apoplectic concerning the Media's Right to Free Speech.

Prosecute the LEAKERS, they say - you can't prosecute the Media !!

So....

Let's go back 73 years to 1944 - it's not ancient history, ok ?

Someone - a spy - a pervert - Nazi sympathiser Senator Joe Kennedy - it doesn't matter.

They call the NYT and spill the beans on D-DAY.

The NYT thinks "WHAT A SCOOP !!!". We'll sell hundreds of thousands of extra newspapers !!!

And it's not our doing - we're the PRESS. It's ok. If anything illegal is being done, it's the LEAKER, not us !

So D-DAY is called off.

Maybe it's rescheduled. Maybe the new D-DAY results in more Allied deaths. Maybe less. Maybe it's cancelled altogether, and the National Socialists firm up their grasp on Europe, and the Thousand Year Reich solidifies - and becomes unbeatable.

But the NYT cares little about the future. They're selling newspapers NOW.

And of course, DEMOCRAT FDR just shrugs his shoulders, mutters "oh well", and leaves the NYT alone.

REALLY ?

They've got to do something. The leaks are out of control.

The more the main stream freaks out about something, the more I think the administration is on the right track.

I have a similar barometer for Obummer, Cuomo, Schumer, Pelosi, etc.. If it pisses them off it MUST be a good thing.

I'd say if a journalist posts classified info and they know it's classified it's illegal. They should not post it unless it's illegal or immoral what the government is doing. Unless it's whistle blowing it should be criminal. I do have to say it's a bit scary though to silence journalists, but they are running rampant at this point.

Illegal ? Yes - That's what Whistleblowers are for.

But IMMORAL ? NO !

Immoral leaves far too much "wiggle room".

Right off the bat there are a great many that feel ANY Immigration Restrictions are immoral.

(and it had better be CLEARLY ILLEGAL. you know, like using a Private Server for Government Communications.)

Here is the issue, Wikileaks is actually (like it or not) vetted journalism-they have NEVER been proven to be posting anything false, whereas the New York Slimes, Washington ComPost, NBC, ABC, CBS, and CNN are constantly lying and just making sh*t up, that is not journalism that is Lefty-propaganda.

However any time Trump wants to let his balls drop all he has to do is cut off their White House press credentials, I am an ardent Trump fan, but come on, when the media is bashing you over phony stories, then stick it to them, "No soup for you," only invite to the daily briefings actual journalists.
