War on Journalism: FBI accuses FOX reporter of aiding espionage (VIDEO)







The scandal around the US government spying on journalists appears to be spreading.

In the latest twist it's been revealed that personal phone records and e-mails of a Fox News reporter were seized as part of a leak investigation.

This latest incident comes hot on the heels of an Associated Press wiretapping scandal, when members of staff had their calls and e-mails monitored.

RT's Washington correspondent Gayane Chichakyan looks at the implications, that these cases might have for journalism in America. 

And RT news editor, Ivor Crotty, explains why there's a fear the US government's war on whistleblowers might go much further.
