Will County Judge Gerald Kinney should be raped with a metal pipe wrapped with barbed wire, then hung from a lamp post while the citizenry throw rotten tomatoes at him

Well, that's why I would do to any JUDGE WHO THREATENS TO JAIL JOURNALISTS:

JOLIET, Ill. (AP) — Several journalism organizations are criticizing a judge's decision to find a suburban Chicago reporter in contempt for not disclosing how he obtained confidential police reports about a gruesome double murder.

Will County Judge Gerald Kinney on Friday fined Joe Hosey, a reporter and editor for the AOL news website Patch, $300 a day for not revealing who leaked him the documents. Kinney also said if Hosey doesn't disclose the information within 180 days he could go to jail.

The board of the Illinois News Broadcasters Association, which represents about 200 journalists, issued a statement calling Kinney's decision "a slap at the First Amendment."

This all boils down to the fact the the reporter in question works for Patch, an online-only news experiment. Dick Durbin is sponsoring legislation that would protect journalists, as long as they don't work for online news organizations. Fuck you Dick Durbin. Fuck you with an elephant's dick.
