UPDATED: A federal judge has found Catherine Herridge in civil contempt of his order that she reveal the source of stories she wrote when she worked for Fox News.
U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper set a fine of $800 per day, but he stayed the ruling to give her time to appeal.
The judge had ordered Herridge to reveal her sources for 2017 stories that reported on a federal investigation of Yanping Chen, a naturalized U.S. citizen who founded the University of Management and Technology in Virginia. The stories had to do with Chen’s affiliations with the Chinese military. The FBI investigation examined statements she made on immigration forms about her work in China in the 1980s.
Chen was not charged, but sued the federal government, claiming that someone leaked information about her to Herridge and Fox in violation of the Privacy Act.
Herridge since went to work for CBS News, but was laid off earlier this month.
“The Court does not reach this result lightly,” Cooper wrote in his order. “It recognizes the paramount importance of a free press in our society and the critical role that confidential sources play in the work of investigative journalists like Herridge. Yet the Court also has its own role to play in upholding the law and safeguarding judicial authority. Applying binding precedent in this Circuit, the Court resolved that Chen’s need for the requested information to vindicate her rights under the Privacy Act overcame Herridge’s qualified First Amendment reporter’s privilege in this case.”
Read the judge’s contempt order against Catherine Herridge.
Herridge had been subpoenaed to give a deposition in the case last year, but she refused to reveal her sources when she sat for questioning in September.
