[LEFT]Exclusive: Feds confiscate investigative reporter’s confidential files during raid
[LEFT]"A veteran Washington D.C. investigative journalist says the Department of Homeland Security confiscated a stack of her confidential files during a raid of her home in August — leading her to fear that a number of her sources inside the federal government have now been exposed.
In an interview with The Daily Caller, journalist Audrey Hudson revealed that the Department of Homeland Security and Maryland State Police were involved in a predawn raid of her Shady Side, Md. home on Aug. 6. Hudson is a former Washington Times reporter and current freelance reporter."[/LEFT]
I thought Nixon was impeached for this or was going to be impeached so he resigned.
The media hated Nixon. The media love Obama. They are not going to be treated the same. I keeping hoping the media will do their job, but noooooo.....
Seems some journalists are trying but then have their homes raided. I think fear will overtake our media when they find out what is really happening but then it will be too late.
Straight out of Alinsky's book. Dismiss and demean the messenger. Did you write your thesis on it like Hillary did?
Really? I've actually read Alinksy's book. Precisely where does he say that?
From the second page of the article you linked to:
“During the course of the search, the CGIS agent discovered government documents labeled FOUO – For Official Use Only (FOUO) – and LES – Law Enforcement Sensitive. The files that contained these documents were cataloged on the search warrant inventory and taken from the premises,” Díaz said.
“The documents were reviewed with the source agency and determined to be obtained properly through the Freedom of Information Act,” he said.
Diaz said Flanagan was notified that the documents were cleared and he later picked them up after signing for the files.
Which seems like a perfectly logical explanation for what actually happened. But if you'd rather believe that the President of the United States personally targets people to be among the hundreds of ongoing investigations by the federal government at any given time, mainly because you hate his guts and you want to believe he's evil incarnate, be my guest.
[LEFT]“‘Legitimate’ for me to have my own notes?” she said incredulously on Wednesday.
Asked how many sources she thinks may have been exposed, Hudson said: “A lot. More than one. There were a lot of names in those files.”
“This guy basically came in here and took my anonymous sources and turned them over — took my whistle-blowers — and turned it over to the agency they were blowing the whistle on,” Hudson said. “And these guys still work there.”
Diaz said Flanagan was notified that the documents were cleared and he later picked them up after signing for the files.
But Hudson doesn’t buy the explanation: “That explains the one file they took but does not explain why they took four other files with my handwritten and typed interview notes with confidential sources, that I staked my reputation as a journalist to protect under the auspices of the First Amendment of the Constitution,” she said.

Well, Mr. Diaz from the Coast Guard is saying something different.
And what evidence does she have that the Coast Guard turned her notes over to anybody?
Why did they take the notes in the first place? It is her property and what she had was legal to have. They took her notes with names.
The Coast Guard spokesman explained that in the part I quoted.
