ON THE RECORD: Dec 11, 2013: In a 4-3 ruling, New York State's Court of Appeals voted to knock down an earlier decision which would require Fox News reporter, Jana Winter, to appear in front of Arapahoe County District Court in Colorado to disclose the source who gave her information about a notebook that the gunman, James Holmes, gave to his psychiatrist just prior to the shooting. Winter reportedly said that she would go to jail before revealing such information to a judge. She won by ONE vote. It's important to note the balance of a reporters protection was only ONE vote. MediaIte reported she was subject to harassment during the course of proceedings in both Colorado and New York, including having her family’s personal details exposed publically by people she describes as “supporters” of Holmes. “They were in court last time – 20 of them,” Winter said. “They have these blogs.” She said that Holmes’ fans would post expansive details of her father’s military service, the particulars of where her younger brother worked, and even images and the obituary of her deceased mother.
