This document is page 105 from a book (Chapter 12, titled 'Fugitive'), likely 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein (indicated by the footer filename and ISBN). The text details Edward Snowden's interactions with journalists Laura Poitras, Glenn Greenwald, and specifically Barton Gellman in May and June 2013. It describes Snowden's request for Gellman to insert an encrypted key into a Washington Post article to signal a foreign government for asylum, a request Gellman refused. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' stamp, suggesting it was part of a document production for a congressional investigation.
