Feds steamed at New York Times Edwards Snowden National Security Agency editorial - POLITICO.com: However, one government official speaking on condition of anonymity called the editorial "frustrating."
"There's absolutely no evidence any government officials or employees violated the law," the official said Thursday. "The piece is based on an absolutely inaccurate premise and that is that laws have been broken … Snowden broke the law and the people conducting these activities were doing so in compliance with the law."
