The press is only upset about this becuase they are the ones being spied upon. When it was us everyday joes and jills, they could have cared less.

Yes, but that's the beauty of it, Cyclone59. Usually, the press doesn't see any problem with totalitarianism until it's too late to save a country. They haven't bothered to report countless serious Obama scandals. Now, suddenly, if they don't report this with the gravity it deserves, they are TOAST. It isn't their credibility at stake, it's their very lives.
