Bush administration spying on journalists

More than two years after he leaked the existence of the NSA’s warrantless wiretapping program to the New York Times in late 2006

Why wasn't he tried for treason, or at least collusion?
 
If you read the article he was canned when he found out about it. Now there are probably people that could be tried for treason though.
 
The news organizations didn't do anything illegal. Whereas the people spying on them did.

See how our laws work?
 
A bit dated perhaps but always apropos!

The Dead Kennedys (Jello Biafra) said:
"Bleed For Me"

You've been hanging 'round
With an enemy of the state
Come with me to the building
That no-one stops to watch

[Chorus]
C'mon bleed
C'mon bleed
C'mon bleed
Bleed for me

We'll strap you to a pipe
Electrodes on your balls
C'mon scream
C'mon writhe
Face down in a pool of piss

[Chorus]

In the name of world peace
In the name of world profits
America pumps up our secret police
America wants fuel
To get it, it needs puppets
So what's ten million dead?
If it's keeping out the Russians

We're well trained by the CIA
With Yankee tax money in Ft. Bragg
The Peace Corps builds US labor camps
When they think they're building schools

Ha Ha

When cowboy Ronnie comes to town
Forks out his tongue at human rights
Sit down, enjoy our ethnic meal
Dine on some charbroiled nuns
Try a medal on
Smile at the mirror as the cameras click
and make big business happy-

Anytime
Anywhere
Maybe you'll just disappear

[Chorus]
 
A different album, but what truer statement did I ever see out of a punk band?

And no I don't agree with the guy politically on everything or even most things, but he does make one think, which is never bad.
