The best scientific evidence we have suggests moderate consumption of alcohol protects the heart.

You are feeding a political movement that supports allowing a man, dishonest or not, to be jailed for protecting his sources, which will set a precedent that inhibits ALL genuine journalistic investigation.
Source protection is when journalists (including heads of international organizations engaged in journalism) protect the sources of their information that enables said journalism.
A "journalistic courtesy" that people like you would make illegal so as to shutdown journalism that goes against your agenda.
