Tim Burke Indicted for Conspiracy Involving Tucker Carlson Fox News Video Clips

Freelance journalist Tim Burke has been indicted on 14 counts, including conspiracy and wiretapping, for accessing internal video footage from media companies, including Fox News. Prosecutors allege that he used compromised credentials to access the footage, which was later published by Vice and Media Matters. Burke's attorneys argue that his actions were legal and akin to using publicly available login credentials, while some media law observers believe he may be the victim of an overzealous application of computer laws.
