'No freedom of speech'

'US citizen has no right to free speech?' State Dept spokesperson grilled over Snowden



Tensions are high as NSA leaker Edward Snowden officially submitted application for temporary asylum in Russia on Tuesday. 

After Russian and international human rights advocates and lawyers met with Snowden at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport on Friday, the US said it is disappointed in Russia for considering the whistleblowers asylum. 

During a daily press briefing State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki was given a thorough grilling on the Snowden affair by journalists, including AP's Matthew Lee and CNN's Elise Labott and was left lost for words at almost every turn.
