A climate of intense pressure.

The New York Times is in the Snowden game.
The paper which NSA leaker Edward Snowden deliberately avoided over his fear that it would cooperate with the United States government is now working with the Guardian on a series of stories based on documents that detail National Security Agency cooperation with its British counterpart, the Government Communications Headquarters, known as GCHQ.
In a climate of intense pressure from the UK government, The Guardian decided to bring in a US partner to work on the GCHQ documents provided by Edward Snowden, Guardian spokeswoman Jennifer Lindenauer said in an email. We are continuing to work in partnership with the NYT and others to report these stories....
...Now, Times reporter Scott Shane is at work on a series of stories expected to be published next month jointly with the Guardian, a source familiar with the plans said. The source said the internal arrangement has also been the cause of some tension in the newsroom, as other national security reporters working on the NSA story Savage and James Risen, among others are not centrally involved in stories based on the Guardians documents.

(1,881 posts)3. Savage is The Guardian's 'red room'
Keeping him out means there will be important omissions in the upcoming 'stories', which means there will be endless tits for tats, further undermining The Guardian. It really makes no sense why The Guardian keeps doing this. Just bring in people who will point out all the discrepancies so we can all get well-rounded information, instead of being forced to write follow-ups after follow-ups, explaining yourselves.
