Now facing incarceration, Miller personifies the need for a federal shield law protecting journalists from such coercion — similar to those laws passed in 49 states and the District of Columbia.

A law school professor who sanctimoniously proclaims that we need a "federal shield law" like this has absolutely ZERO credibility. Mr. Turley is barely qualified to clean toilets in courthouses, let alone teach law.

Frankly, I never have been very impressed with Jonathan Turley; think he's overrated. I think he rose to fame as a novelist, not for any spectacular legal work........but I could be wrong.

I posted this one because I wanted to learn what FReepers think about Novak's outing of Plame in the first place, and what you believe his legal situation is now, compared to Cooper & Miller. If Novalk has testified, then he is presumably "in the clear."

Thanks for your comments, Alberta's Child!
