We do have a habit of sending spies as journalists.
edit: we definitely do this. Also as grad students. Be upset about it, but not with me. The fact that we do this means that US journalists are limited in where they can go. Just like the fact that we're totally willing to send spies as NGO doctors administering vaccinations means that we can't do vaccination campaigns in countries that need help, or the fact that we send spies embedded with weapons/nuclear inspectors means that inspectors can't get access to things.
