The Freedom of the Press Foundation recently named Edward Snowden to its board of directors. The organization, co-founded by Glenn Greenwald and Laura Poitras, is fiscally sponsored by the Foundation for National Progress, which operates Mother Jones. This financial connection has raised questions about the foundation's neutrality and its role in the ongoing Snowden revelations.

The Freedom of the Press Foundation has released "SecureDrop," a whistleblower submission platform originally developed by Aaron Swartz as "Deadrop." The system underwent a security audit by Jacob Appelbaum and is being marketed as a secure way for sources to leak documents to journalists. This technology is central to the new investigative model being pursued by Greenwald and his associates.

The hosts call out Trevor Timm of the Freedom of the Press Foundation for advocating for a media shield law. They argue that Timm, despite his background with the EFF and ACLU, is supporting legislation that would allow the government to decide who is a journalist, which they view as a betrayal of constitutional principles.

An investigation into the Freedom of the Press Foundation reveals its board includes Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras, and John Perry Barlow. The organization is identified as a project of the Foundation for National Progress, which publishes Mother Jones. Financial ties are traced to the George Soros Open Society Institute, leading to claims that the foundation serves as a "front group" for specific political interests.
