NYTimes Writer Accuses Paper of Double Standard


Jack Teixeira, 21, was arrested on Thursday on accusations of being behind the leak of classified Pentagon documents, after The New York Times named him as the source.

 The Daily Mail reports the paper was accused of double standards by its own military correspondent, who noted his colleagues 'worked feverishly' to reveal who was behind the Pentagon leaks - yet would have worked equally intensely to protect his identity if he had leaked the documents to them. 

David Philipps (above, right), military correspondent for The New York Times, tweeted: 


Teixeira appeared in a Boston federal court on Friday and is facing 15 years in prison if convicted of illegally taking and leaking classified information and military secrets.
