This letter from the Committee to Protect Journalists expresses concern to President Obama about actions by his administration that impede the free flow of information and discussion. It cites the use of secret subpoenas against news organizations, prosecutions that equate leaking classified documents to journalists with espionage, and increased limits on access to public interest information. The letter recommends that the administration take steps to protect journalists, increase transparency, and prevent intimidation of officials who speak to the press. It requests a meeting to discuss these issues and recommendations.
