DOJ Subpoenas New York Times Journalists
DOJ subpoenas journalists over reports on presidential aircraft.
Event Overview
The U.S. Department of Justice, under U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, issued subpoenas to New York Times journalists who reported on security vulnerabilities of a Qatari-donated aircraft. Federal agents delivered some of these subpoenas at reporters' homes within 48 hours of the story's publication. The DOJ states the journalists are not the targets and the move is a tool to identify leakers of classified information. The New York Times and press freedom organizations describe the action as an attempt to intimidate the press.
