I wouldnt put too much faith into the media bad-mouthing Nancy
Here is what Judge Clark said on this issue in one of the interviews:

These were closed sessions and we could always expect the next day to see something taking us apart. Lou Cannon wrote an article on the front page of the Post revealing some very sensitive stuff about the NSC. It was so bad that Nancy got upset and saw me and said, How can you people release this?

I knew Cannon well enough to phone him and say, Lou, I know you dont reveal sources, but Im in trouble and I know you didnt get that from any of us. We have an idea where you did get it. Would you at least phone Nancy, and he had that relationship, and tell her that it did not come out of the NSC? Which he did.”
