...declining to expand First Amendment rights to safeguard a reporter's confidentiality, the Court has endangered the ability of newsmen to gather information about illicit activities. The Court's majority opinion holds that newsmen enjoy no special privilege before a grand jury; it maintains that newsmen have recourse through the courts to challenge a jury's interrogation if they feel it is peripheral to the case under investigation.

The Record American, bless its tabloid soul, carried the numbers every day, ran lots of patriotic and sensational stories on subversives and fires, and generally catered to the city's hardcore working class people. But while the Record's editorial approach clearly...
...many misses in his predictions. What gave him his credibility was a more limited but very special talent, the ability to diagnose illnesses of persons many miles away. Many Americans ?most, the optimistic would say ?still find the craze for prophecy foolish and even bankrupt. Others may enjoy the predictions for what many of them are?a parlor entertainment. But millions, obviously, need reassurance about the future...
