Timothy Burke, a well-known Tampa journalist and media consultant facing federal conspiracy charges made his second court appearance Monday as his lawyer maintains he did nothing but “good journalism.” Burke appeared at a federal courthouse in Tampa on Monday. His arraignment on fourteen federal charges including conspiracy and wiretapping was extended for two weeks. “Mr. Burke is not a criminal. He’s just a person attempting to do good journalism,” Burke’s attorney Michael Maddux said. “We're taking our time getting things launched in the case. And I mean, it's an important case. It's a case of paramount concern to journalists all across the country.” Burke and an unnamed co-conspirator are accused of hacking into video servers to obtain and publish videos, including outtakes from an interview between former Fox News host Tucker Carlson and Ye, formerly known as Kanye West. His lawyers argue Burke didn’t break any laws to obtain the footage and that he’s protected by the First Amendment to publish the recordings.
