Federal authorities have taken a step that's raising concerns about press freedom, as the New York Times reports that two of its journalists have been subpoenaed in connection with their reporting on Air Force One. The move is believed to be related to the publication's coverage of a 2021 incident in which a reporter was able to get on the presidential plane and report on the president's movements. The reporters in question are likely facing scrutiny for their alleged failure to follow proper protocols when boarding the aircraft. The New York Times has vowed to fight the subpoenas, citing the importance of protecting journalists' ability to report on government activities without fear of retribution.
