News Media Review Committee, National Security Exceptions

The DOJ report outlines the creation of a News Media Review Committee and a News Media Dialogue Group. The hosts criticize these bodies for being composed of government officials rather than independent journalists. They note that "national security" remains a broad exception that allows the government to delay notifying the press about surveillance for up to 90 days.
