Are there any details about those allegations? I'd be interested to see what the warrant gave as cause. We seem to be jumping to the conclusion that these journalists are innocent.

The warrant[1] doesn't seem to provide much information and the affidavit used to secure the warrant has yet to be produced.[2]

When you take literally everything that isn't nailed down from a journalism business that needs its resources to operate, it's not really jumping to conclusions to determine what kind of action this is. This is an action to squash the article and attempt to drive the paper out of business.
