Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule

Necessary Secrets: National Security, the Media, and the Rule of Law

â€œEssential reading for anyone seriously interested in national security and freedom of the press.â€â€•Leonard Downie Jr., Washington Post
Gabriel Schoenfeld â€œbrilliantly illuminatesâ€ (Wall Street Journal) a growing rift between a press that sees itself as the heroic force promoting the publicâ€™s â€œright to knowâ€ and a government that needs to safeguard information vital to the effective conduct of foreign policy. A masterful contribution to the enduring challenge of interpreting the First Amendment, Necessary Secrets offers a gripping account of how our national security, now and across the American past, has been compromised by disclosure of classified information.
