If the people involved feel confident that a reputable news outlet will protect their reporters with the First Amendment... and a news organization can print a story based entirely on an anonymous tip... it may be impossible to keep someone from talking or whispering secrets to a reporter in an empty stairwell... or at the smoker's patio on the roof.
The reporter simply writes, "A source close to the family confirms..." or "According to a confidential source within the facility..."
