At Armavirumque, James Pierson has a thoughtful post on the possible prosecution of the New York Times: “Is the New York Times about to be indicted?” Pierson’s post contributes his own close reading of the Times to interpret the Times’s handling of its criminal jeopardy. I set out my own analysis of the legal issues in the Standard column “Exposure” and Gabriel Schoenfeld explored the issues at length in “Has the New York Times violated the Espionage Act?” Pierson superimposes the related political considerations on the analysis of the legal issues.
