        It's amazing how often people "leaking" the truth of things are then persecuted for it. It's as if the the Gov would rather us believe a lie

        She didn't release the truth about anything and it was politically motivated, astonishing this is even up for discussion

        It would be nice to know what she was arrested for then since the reason given states otherwise

        I disagree with @Snowden. Jailing a journo would be a threat. Jailing a leaker who willfully broke state secrets law is fully justified.

        No, a source or leaker isn't a journalist.

        No a leaker is the brave hero that enables a journalist to exercise freedom of the press.

        But still not a journalist, so still not a contradiction. And "hero" really depends on your point of view, just ask the DNC.

        What I mean is nobody is calling the people who leaked the DNC emails exposing their corruption "heroes," we're calling them hackers.

        As you well know - you can leak according to your conscious, but that doesn't mean you can or should escape the consequences.

        The idea that authority can commit crimes under the veil of "secrecy" and then punish those who reveal their crimes Is absurd.

        In this specific case not sure. But deceiving people into believing russiagate narrative is manipulative & duplicitous at best.
