Re: The Legality of Publishing Hacked E-Mails

["Larry Seltzer" <larry () larryseltzer com>]

Another point about the CJR article is that it claims there's a big
difference between the Pentagon Papers and the East Anglia e-mails
because the latter aren't government documents. This is sophistry. Those
e-mails concern research which is heavily government-funded and which is
driving significant matters of public policy concern. There's no good
reason to draw a distinction between the cases.
