Pentagon is getting sued by the New York Times

Reuters reports that the New York Times is suing the Pentagon about the recent domestic spying by the NSA.

“The U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act requires the federal government to obtain warrants from a secret federal court for surveillance operations inside the United States.”

For readers not familiar with the domestic spying program, more information can be found on Wikipedia. (Wikipedia is written by the viewers and is normally a very good resource, but always be aware that it is easily edited by anyone.)
