(9,766 posts)Hell! I dont even have a Rolodex, (though I do personally know the person who summarizes the weekly livestock sales report for the Capital Press, I cant say I'd recommend her for the Snowden material, but Boy Howdy, She does know her barrows and gilts!
I have digressed.
Back to the subj at hand:
A journalist who might handle Snowden's information would need to have some starch. He or she, might ought to be one who would not be shaken by his/ her spouse being detained for 9 hours in a secluded room in a foreign airport, by anti-terrorism agents representing a government with no constitutional regard for freedoms of the press.
A journalist who might handle Snowden's material would need to stand up under intimidation by government, and intimidation by others in the media. When a fellow "journalist" suggests he/she should be should be concerned about being charged with a crime,how would your chosen journalist respond to the intimidation.
I hope you could find one who would respond as well as this:
