Journalists Protest Gag Order
By Declan McCullagh

WASHINGTON -- The Electronic Frontier Foundation will represent a Seattle
journalist collective that is the target of a police probe and
court-imposed gag order.

On Saturday evening, FBI agents visited the downtown offices of the
Independent Media Center and handed the group a court order -- apparently
related to the Quebec City trade summit -- that also instructed the media
organization not to publish the contents of the order.
