Josh Meyer, director of education and outreach at Medill School of Journalism's National Security Journalism Initiative and a writer for Quartz, said that in the 30 years he has lived on and off in Washington, D.C., he has never found journalists to be so afraid. ?It's so bad that there's a gallows humor that has sort of emerged out of this,? said Mr. Meyer. ?You see journalists at parties and you joke about 'How is the investigation going?'? People just assume they're being investigated and it's not a good feeling.?
