Than why would I get arrested if I knowlingly accept stolen property?
The press should not be given a pass on this.

The Washington Post should be served with a search Warrant on Monday morning for all documents both printed on paper in files or in notebooks and digital in what ever form including cloud files accessible from the site. No one should be permitted to enter and those forced to leave should be searched for files including thumb drives.
While there may be some law asserting publishing is no crime, aiding and abetting the transmission of classified and confidential data should be retried before the supreme court. The publishers be they the New York Times, the Washington Post, CBS, Comcast or CNN must be held accountable.
The Washington post must be shut down during the search even if the prolonged search takes months. The owner has lots of money so it is no big deal if he decreases the loss the paper incurs. The paper is a swamp critter.
Why are some wanting to put Julian Assange in jail?
As much as I hate the American Press for what they've become -= we can't take this pass away from them...
