DOJ is lucky to have a gutsy reporter like @Ryanjreilly on our beat. We knew that even before tonight. Glad he and @WesleyLowery are ok.

Isn’t it nice that the DOJ is so friendly with the reporters covering them? Ryan Reilly and Wesley Lowery were both arrested briefly in Ferguson, Missouri for not complying with police requests Wednesday evening.

CNN’s Jake Tapper stepped in to ask a real question though.
.@brianefallon how do you distinguish between the "gutsy" reporters and the one the administration is threatening to put in jail?

@jaketapper @brianefallon Dude quit twitter now, no where to go but down from here. Best. Tweet. Ever!

Editor’s note: Originally this post incorrectly identified Jake Tapper as working for ABC. Tapper is no longer with ABC, and now works for CNN. The error has been corrected.
[Update]
The tweet I sent about gutsy reporters was a reference to James Risen — if you don't know his case, check it out.
