Air Marshals Lie To Congress, Reporter Harassed

The reporter who documented how federal air marshals lied to Congress has been harassed by a night-time raid.  The alleged purpose of the raid was to look for a potato launcher.  The real purpose of the raid was to send an example to other reporters, and to seize protected notes in the house.

Audrey Hudson says that her reporting notes were taken during a search of her home by the Department of Homeland Security and Maryland police. ... "They took my notes without my knowledge and without legal authority to do so," Hudson told the Daily Caller. "The search warrant they presented said nothing about walking out of here with a single sheet of paper.
... five files with interview notes were taken during the raid. Those files had the names of government sources, and "were used to expose how the Federal Air Marshal Service had lied to Congress about the number of airline flights there were actually protecting against another terrorist attack," Hudson says.
