Goldberg published vague information about the attacks in Yemen more than a week after they occurred
Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of *The Atlantic*, published excerpts from a Signal group chat he was accidentally added to by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, revealing discussions among national security officials about a U.S. military operation. While Goldberg withheld some sensitive information, the publication sparked controversy, with some accusing him of being irresponsible, while others point to the Trump administration's error in adding him. Journalists are generally protected when publishing legally obtained, newsworthy information.
