Short form: The author read some printout of a web article about the decline of journalism post 9/11 in a coffee shop, someone in the coffee shop got spooked and called the FBI. The FBI came to the guy's house and then to his work to ask questions about it.

| "I'll tell you what, Marc. Someone in the shop that day saw you reading something, and thought it looked suspicious enough to call us about. So that's why we're here, just checking it out. Like I said, there's no problem. We'd just like to get to the bottom of this. Now if we can't, then you may have a problem. And you don't want that." |
Wow...
