I find it quite interesting.
You saw that comment too. Takes a lot of nerve.
Judith Miller has been held in contempt. NYT is appealing so she remains free.
I can't get the connection between her and Wilson/Plame.
Wasn't she being investigated for leaks about an impending raid on a AQ fron charity in New York too?

Gee, ya f***ing THINK?
curiouser and couriouser...hope Plame and Jo Jo have very good lawyers.
Maybe so. But it is not Constutionally protected 'speech' and if you refuse to cooperate you should expect to be held in contempt and sit in jail with the rest of the cockroaches.
The question should be is Shultzberger aiding and abetting the reporter by paying her while in jail or otherwise missing work. Is he forcing her under pain of job loss to insist on non existant rights?
Should he not be questioned by the Grand Jury about his actions to prevent her testimony?
Earlier today there was another post on a speech by a Dem congressman (Moran?) in which the reporter claimed that Joseph Wilson "was fired by Bush after he wrote the story discounting the Niger uranium claim." The reporter also said that Plame "was working on a covert CIA operation" when she was "outed." Aren't both of those claims false? Wasn't Wilson already retired from the foreign service? And has anyone claimed that Plame was exposed while in the middle of a dangerous covert mission?

He is a member of the Executive Committee of the U.S. Judicial Conference, Chair of the Courtroom Technology Subcommittee, and served on the Board of the Federal Judicial Center. .
It's frankly frightening Ms Miller, that you journies keep claiming a right that nobody gave you. We're sick to death of "secret sources". Belly up to the bar baby and just tell it like it is. If you're not willing to, hope you enjoy your stay in jail.
Dangerously off-course? Whose course, I wonder? The NY Times perhaps? Thanks for the ping!
