Am I missing something? There's no [federal] shield law protecting journalists in the US.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shield_laws_in_the_United_Stat...

"There is no federal shield law and state shield laws vary in scope."

https://www.mtsu.edu/first-amendment/article/1241/shield-law...

"There is no federal shield law"

Not even former or sitting presidents are protected.

That’s an interesting hypothetical. Wrong about what exactly?

The thing is the article didn’t say anything about shield laws, which is what the comment I was responding to was talking about.
