U.S. did not seek detention of Snowden journalist's partner: White House Aug 19th 2013, 18:28 WASHINGTON | Mon Aug 19, 2013 2:03pm EDT WASHINGTON (Reuters) - British officials gave their U.S. counterparts a "heads up" before detaining the partner of the journalist who first reported secrets leaked by fugitive U.S. intelligence agency contractor Edward Snowden, the White House said on Monday. But American law enforcement officials did not ask British authorities to question journalist Glenn Greenwald's partner, David Miranda, the White House said. "This is a decision they made on their own," White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters at a briefing. He did not provide information about how far in advance British officials notified the United States that Miranda would be detained.
