Floyd Abrams, a lawyer representing the news organisations that supported the appeal, described Wednesday's ruling as a "breakthrough" and said it ensures that war correspondents "can do their jobs without the concern they will be routinely placed in the impossible position of testifying against their sources."
Floyd Abrams, un avocat care a reprezentat organizatiile din domeniul mass media in sprijinirea apelului, a descris decizia de miercuri drept "un pas inainte" si a spus ca aceasta permite corespondentilor de razboi "sa-si faca datoria fara a se teme ca ar putea fi pusi in pozitia imposibila de a depune marturie impotriva surselor lor".
