James Risen is not just a phenomenal reporter, he is also an extremely courageous and honorable American patriot. His case is a very disturbing one, and it has justifiably received a great deal of national attention. In a nutshell, the Obama Administration is threatening the pulitzer prize winning journalist with prison unless he reveals the source behind one of his stories. This is something no journalist worth his salt would ever do, but the fact our own government would resort to threats of incarceration in order to instill fear in the press to prevent it from doing its job is quite telling and extremely dangerous.
Mr. Risen understands this danger more than just about anyone else, which is why he has previously stated he is prepared to go to jail in order to defend the First Amendment from Obama, who he calls “the greatest enemy to press freedom in a generation.”

ReplyDeleteMaybe Holder can tell him a few things he needs to know.
I made that last part up.
Keep cheering.
Obama is a media creation. They chose him and savaged anyone who dared oppose him. They have supported his lies and belittled those who questioned his legitimacy. Happy to see them turning on each other. Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.
