Summary Confidentiality has become a weapon in the White House's war on the press, a war fought with the unwitting complicity of the press itself. Here, Time editor Pearlstine takes us behind the scenes of this battle, showing that the conflict between reporters and their sources is of great consequence for the press, and for the country as a whole. Pearlstine calls on Congress to pass a federal shield law protecting journalists from the needless intrusions of government; at the same time, he calls on the press to name its sources whenever possible. Off the Record is a powerful argument, with the vividness and narrative drive of the best long-form journalism. It is sure to spark controversy among the people who run the government--and among the people who tell their stories.
