“Speaking on CBS‘s Face the Nation, Pruitt, AP’s president and chief executive officer, said the government’s seizure of the phone records was ‘unconstitutional’ and was already clearly harming the press’s ability to do its job. ‘We are already seeing some impact. Already officials that would normally talk to us and people we talk to in the normal course of newsgathering are already saying to us that they are a little reluctant to talk to us. They fear that they will be monitored by the government. We are already seeing that. It’s not hypothetical,’ said Pruitt.”
