DOJ Objects to Website Statement on Patriot Act

The DOJ took issue with a statement on the Patriot Act posted to the ABCNews Nightline website yesterday, resulting in this press release. The following “correction” now appears on the Nightline website:

Correction – Yesterday, a promo for Nightline posted on the ABCNEWS homepage incorrectly read: “Imagine a nation where police can search your home without a court order or a warrant. Don’t look too far, it’s already here.” The correct copy should read: “Imagine a nation where police can search your home or medical records without your knowledge. Don’t look too far, it’s already here.

BeSpacific: “No one better has her finger on the pulse of the legal information world than Sabrina Pacifici, law librarian and author of the blog BeSpacific,” writes blogger Robert Ambrogi. “Launched in 2002, BeSpacific is one of the longest-running legal blogs and, remarkably, Sabrina seems more prolific today than ever. She posts multiple items every day, covering the gamut of law, technology and knowledge discovery and topics ranging from cybersecurity to legal research to government regulation to civil liberties to IP and more. For me, BeSpacific is one of my daily must-reads and has been for 14 years straight.”
