Fox doing an Alert on it now and I could slap them. The guy (sorry, forget his name) presented it as if it's precedent setting.

This is absurd. Matt Cooper has already spoken with this grand jury after having been held in contempt before. Is it so hard to report in context?! The rulings ordering Cooper and Miller to cooperate were based on Supreme Court precedent that said reporters had to testify in criminal cases.

I can't wait to hear what's in those notes.

It's amazing. Reporters don't have any first amendment right to shield their sources. Freedom of the press is not issued to a benighted few. It belongs to all of us, whether we work for the NYT or post on Free Republic and none of us have the right to shield criminal information just to make a buck off of it.

And, of course, this whole thing was created because the Dems thought they had Karl Rove or someone from the administration trying to hurt a critic. It's obvious now that isn't true.
