journalist's privilege

Read a random definition: Modus Operandi

A quick definition of journalist's privilege:

Journalist's privilege is a legal right that protects reporters from being forced to reveal their confidential sources or information. It is a type of privilege that grants someone the legal freedom to do or not to do a given act, immunizing conduct that would otherwise subject the actor to liability. This privilege is important for journalists to be able to do their job of reporting news and information without fear of legal repercussions.

A more thorough explanation:

Journalist's privilege is a legal right that protects reporters from being forced to reveal their confidential sources or information. It is a type of privilege, which is a special legal right or exemption granted to a person or class of persons.

For example, if a journalist has information about a crime that was given to them by a confidential source, they can refuse to reveal that source in court. This privilege is important because it allows journalists to do their job without fear of retaliation or legal consequences.

Another example of a privilege is the attorney-client privilege, which protects the confidentiality of communications between a lawyer and their client. This privilege allows clients to speak freely with their lawyers without fear of their conversations being used against them in court.

Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
