This looks like the most brazen and direct government attack on freedom of the press in a long, long time.

No doubt, Big Journalism will speak as one to denounce this almost certainly illegal raid and confiscation of computers and more.

I hope our nation's journalism will realize that the extremists who run one of our two major parties are itching to bring our news media to heel, and killing democracy is the way they will start.

Wake the hell up, folks.
