Vlogger Josh Wolf breaks jail time record for subpoena refusal

Activist and videoblogger Josh Wolf, jailed last year for refusing to hand over footage to authorities, has now been incarcerated for more than 171 days. That is the longest period of jail time an American journalist or blogger has ever served for refusing to comply with a subpoena.
