“In a brief story posted on its website, the Guardian said it ‘struck a partnership’ with the Times after the British government threatened the Guardian with legal action unless it either surrendered or destroyed files it received from Snowden about Government Communications Headquarters – Britain’s equivalent of NSA. ‘In a climate of intense pressure from the UK government, the Guardian decided to bring in a US partner to work on the GCHQ documents provided by Edward Snowden. We are working in partnership with the NYT and others to continue reporting these stories,’ the British newspaper said in a statement.”
