Lady and the Tramp

Nope, my first post is not going to adress the sweet Disney movie from 1955, but a real time Lady and the Tramp-story.
You see, Karianne Solbrække, a journalist covering the NOKAS-case where a cop got shot to death, got romantically involved with a suspected terrorist, Arfan Qadeer Bhatti.

Trygve Hegnar, an economist & editor frequently appearing in various MSM, now reveals her name and photograph in his paper, Finansavisen.

Why is this a big thing? Besides the obvious, a reporter losing all integrity, it shows the power of the MSM.
When the shit first hit the fan, Karianne Solbrække got immunity.
As a result, several other female reporters got accused for being She.

Secondly, it makes a strong case arguing journalistic bias.
Karianne Solbrække has been quoted saying amongst other things:
"I can go out with my sources after work, but it doesnt happen too frequently"

She has been known to make the police dismiss a murder-case. She didnt "think the police could run a murder investigation without the people knowing about it".
