President Joe Biden on Friday told CNN he would not let his Department of Justice seize phone records or emails from reporters.
Following a joint presser with Korean President Moon Jae-In in the White House East Room, Biden told CNN: "We should absolutely, positively -- it's wrong, it's simply, simply wrong," adding, "I will not let that happen." CNN reported Thursday that the Trump administration secretly sought and obtained the 2017 phone and email records of CNN Pentagon correspondent Barbara Starr, the latest instance where federal prosecutors have taken aggressive steps targeting journalists in leak investigations.More Related News
