If newspapers can’t claim the reporter’s privilege after reporters are murdered then sources can’t trust that their identities will remain confidential. https://t.co/cCF5xieHkf — PolitiTweet.org

Record numbers of journalists are imprisoned around the globe. This is no time for the U.S. to appease allies who intimidate and murder reporters. https://t.co/PV8eIYJmLp — PolitiTweet.org

It’s a shame that the same judiciary charged with enforcing the First Amendment set it aside to support a flagrantly unconstitutional bill out of self-interest. https://t.co/wWgk54xrPF — PolitiTweet.org

DHS and other fed agencies should certainly follow the DOJ in adopting rules against surveilling the press. Then Congress should pass the PRESS Act to permanently protect journalists from government overreach. https://t.co/qudbPNdn0k — PolitiTweet.org

Why would the reporter's privilege die with the reporter? Mr. German's sources are still alive but now it's up to a judge's whims whether to protect them. This ruling tells sources not to come forward unless they're sure they won't outlive journalists. https://t.co/qoHWPO9SNB — PolitiTweet.org

The journalists will have waited 480 days to find out whether they'll serve time for doing their jobs. That's assuming no more continuances. First, Fourth, and now Sixth - how many more Constitutional amendments can Asheville authorities violate? — PolitiTweet.org

Journalists are increasingly attacked online for their work, both by persistent individuals and collective mobs. Preparing for these situations puts you in control, and can be deeply empowering. https://t.co/Fes0VTNZKA — PolitiTweet.org

Awful ruling. After authorities misled the court about searching a murdered journalist's phone, they get everything they wanted—over the strenuous objection of the @reviewjournal. Follow @USPressTracker for more. — PolitiTweet.org

Wyoming is the last state without any reporter's privilege but it's considering a bill to change that. It's time for the federal gov to lead by example. Congress needs to pass the PRESS Act and end surveillance of journalists. https://t.co/LggMBsksYa — PolitiTweet.org

Some good news. Other judges around the country should take note: It's not that hard to protect press freedom rights in the court of law. Follow the @USPressTracker for more on this case. https://t.co/AUBmoMeEZ5 — PolitiTweet.org

The public should be able to see for themselves whether @AshevillePolice singled out @AvlBlade journalists for exercising First Amendment rights. https://t.co/LRncIHd7cN — PolitiTweet.org
