lets say there is a governmental institution that works with journalists and reporters and has been asked to send information related to the connection between them. Can the reporter object on the grounds of Reporter Privilege (despite that the request wasn't intended to him)?
If the reporter chooses to disclose the sources to a third party (including this mythic government institution) instead of asserting privilege, then the privilege is waived.
