How do journalists stay away from being questioned by the police after making videos about illegal things?

345 viewsOther

There are a lot of documents about illegal activities, like about making/selling drugs for example. Most of them involve some kind of interview with people who are actively involved in those criminal activities. I can imagine that some of those interviews are fake but if they are not, then a journalist might get into having an important knowledge about identities/contacts/places etc. Don’t they then get questioned by a police? I know they would lose their credibility if they gave away this information but don’t they get under pressure to let go of this information to the authorities?

There are two groups of people that you don’t talk to.

#1 is Police.

#2 is journalist.

And police and journalist know this rule and try to avoid each other.

If you find a cop and a journalist on your front porch. It’s going to be a bad day. Don’t make it worse by talking to either.
