Howard Kurtz has accused the New York Times of a “reckless move” in identifying the street on which Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson resides. “Journalism is full of close calls. This is not one of them. The Times should apologize,” writes Kurtz.Wonder if they collected the $5,000.00 reward for Officer Brown's location from the new black panthers? So where do they live?
On Monday, the Times published a scoop by Julie Bosman and Campbell Robertson reporting that Wilson had married fellow officer Barbara Spradling in a “quiet wedding” last month. It noted that the two “own a home together” and identified the town and the name of the street.
Breitbart’s John Nolte writes, “the New York Times had no qualms whatsoever about publishing almost all the information needed for Officer Darren Wilson’s enemies to track him and his wife down at home.” Other outlets, including the New York Post and Fox News, have highlighted the newspaper’s decision. “If anything happens to that man, his family or that home, I hold them — the culpability is with [the New York Times],” said Fox News’s Sean Hannity.
