From the supplier: The US Court of Appeals for the 2d Circuit, in Gonzales v. NBC, ruled that journalists have no privilege to withhold sources of nonconfidential information. Rather than inhibiting the ability of the press to monitor government, as some critics may allege, this decision will enhance press independence from the courts. This independence will aid rather than hinder the capacity of the press to carry out its constitutionally mandated purpose.
