5 $800-a-day penalty threatens to bleed investigative reporter dry as explosive legal fight escalates

Herridge was held in contempt and ordered to pay $800 per day for refusing to reveal sources behind her 2017 reporting on Yanping Chen, a Chinese American businesswoman who operated a university attended by U.S. military personnel. Her reporting raised questions about Chen's alleged past as a colonel for the People's Liberation Army (PLA) of China and the potential exposure of sensitive information about American service members.

The Department of War subsequently cut off military tuition assistance funding to Chen's university following a national security review, according to a filing by Herridge's legal team. The school had been receiving approximately $200,000 a month in taxpayer-funded tuition assistance.
