@jayrosen_nyu No, I asked if you thought Russert's OTR presumptions acts of journalism. Even if@emptywheel locates the act, who decides?2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@jayrosen_nyu Yes. I have no doubt they'd try to protect Russert's OTR convos. But that would expose news media as power brokers@CorinneAM1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -
