Bang goes freedom of the press.

The Bush administration today opposed federal legislation to protect journalists from having to reveal confidential sources because it would create "serious impediments" to law enforcement and fighting terrorism. In other words, they support the jailing of reporters for concealing their sources.

Or to tell it like it is : B*sh has just outlawed freedom of the press.

At least this doesn't target bloggers though. So it's a case of damned-if-you-do and damned-if-you-don't. The shield law would have protected freedom of the press, but allowed bloggers to be prosecuted. No shield law means the press have been muffled and bloggers can continue to tell the truth.
