Great, more insider trading!

...Is it bad that's the first place my mind went?

No, its good.

I'm pretty far left, but outside of their editorial page I find WSJ to be pretty balanced reporting.

Agreed. One of the most responsible these days. And appropriate for financial sector news.

WSJ would probably do a better job on a financial/banking item.

An encrypted messaging app like Signal is pretty secure, more secure than a phone call.

And I agree with the Twitter method above. I replied too soon

Sorry for the typos. It's "not been reported" and "Court justifiably"

If you can identify the reporter most likely to cover it, DM them on Twitter or ask here if anyone can help put you in touch. Many of us know reporters personally.

Who should I trust with it and how do I contact them? Both the NYTimes and WaPo want me to use the Signal app, but I have to send the tip in writing on the app to someone I've never spoken with. There are no telephone contact numbers for any of their reporters. I'm not yet willing to put anything in writing. Is it really impossible to speak directly on the phone with a trustworthy reporter?
