Josh Wolf featured on Frontline

Josh Wolf, the journalist who holds the record for the longest time spent in jail, was itnerview for the Frontline series "News Wars" The interview was done before Wolf entered the northern California prison. There was no mention of this on Frontline, but Society of Professional Journalists in August gave Wolf $30,000 for his legal bills in addition to a previous $1,000 LDF grant. Then President David Carlson negotiated a cap on Wolf's legal fees.

The Northern Calfornia chapter sponsored a rally for Wolf earlier this month when the dubious day passed that put Wolf in the record books.
