The New York Times is pushing back against a series of subpoenas issued to its journalists, who were covering the departure of Air Force One from New York's JFK Airport in 2023. The subpoenas, reportedly served by the Justice Department, seek information and testimony from the journalists related to their coverage of the event. The Times has filed a motion to quash the subpoenas, arguing that they infringe on the First Amendment rights of its journalists and threaten to chill the press's ability to report on newsworthy events. The move is the latest development in a growing controversy over the government's efforts to investigate the source of leaked information to the press.
