If you are referring to the NSA wire tapping, that is another issue and another thread.

They may be thematically linked, as some have suggested, but legally, the FBI appears to be working within the bounds of the law.

If you don't like the Patriot Act, whinging about it here isn't going to do very much. Start working to elect people who will change the law.

The article above indicateds that the FBI is not targeting *all* journalists, just those that part of their investigation into leaks. The reason this is news is that it involves journalists and it is journalists that write the news.
