One of the most noted items of Grunwald's tenure was when he personally wrote Time's editorial during the Watergate scandal asking President Richard Nixon to resign.
"The nightmare of uncertainty must be ended," he wrote in a Nov. 12, 1973 editorial. "A fresh start must be made. Some at home and abroad might see in the president's resignation a sign of American weakness and failure. It would be a sign of the very opposite."
After serving 11 years as managing editor, Grunwald served as editor-in-chief of all Time Inc. publications _ including Fortune, Sports Illustrated, People and Money _ until retirement in 1987.
Watching the media write about Rove's "crime" reminds me of something:
"The propagandist hires a hall, rents radio stations, fills a great stadium, marches a million or at least a lot of men in a parade. He employs symbols, colors, music, movement, all the dramatic arts. He gets us to write letters, to send telegrams, to contribute to his cause. He appeals to the desire, common to most of us, to follow the crowd. Because he wants us to follow the crowd in masses, he directs his appeal to groups held together already by common ties, ties of nationality, religion, race, sex, vocation. Thus propagandists campaigning for or against a program will appeal to us as Catholics, Protestants, or Jews...as farmers or as school teachers; as housewives or as miners.
With the aid of all the other propaganda devices, all of the artifices of flattery are used to harness the fears and hatreds, prejudices and biases, convictions and ideals common to a group. Thus is emotion made to push and pull us as members of a group onto a Band Wagon." (Institute for Propaganda Analysis, 1938)
I still don't believe that Miller is in jail to protect Rove.
I agree (I am a big fan of York's, but like Republicans, conservative reporters need to treat deceit with the disdain it deserves).
It was extremely self-serving and deceptive.
That's different grand jury.
This grand jury indeed wants information from her regarding a "specified government official" that she spoke with on or between July 6 and July 13 about Wilson, Plame, Niger or (yes, "or") Iraqi attempts to get uranium.
Separate grand jury into the Islamic Charity business. Miller's testimony for this grand jury is about Plame, Wilson and Niger.
This part you have right. The subpoena refers to what the Appeals Court called a "specified government official" and I got the impression the name was known but not made public.
Incidentally, the New York Times quoted this phrase deceitfully (I think--unless it is phrased this way somewhere else that I'm not aware of) a "specified Executive Branch Official".
That poster is mixing up two separate grand jury investigations. Please don't put out wrong information.
Neither do I. Why would she go to jail after Karl Rove already released his contacts in order for them to talk? That makes no sense. There is definitely more to this story and I don't think it's going to be in favor of the ignorant OLD MEDIA. They THINK they control the direction of news but they are sadly mistaken. Too many people have figured them out. When they start circling the wagon we know something is up.
I think this is why she is holding out.
My guess is that Fitzgerald has expanded his scope to leaking beyond the Plame affair.
Re#84 and 86. Thanks for the clarification (and nice catch on the NY Times' deceit)...
Well, I remember when Cooper and Grunwald got married!
LOL
Here is John's first column today:

And isn't that Podhoretz column excellent?
I mean really excellent.
see #s 84, 86 and 87. I trust cyncooper on this one...
That is a different grand jury.
Mandy & Miller
What Washington, DC considers "the beautiful people". PUKE!
Cooper, Wilson, and every other charlatan associated with propagating this fraud on the the public ought to be so thoroughly discredited by now that no one would ever pay them the slightest respect or attention again. Unfortunately, the LSM continues to try to distort the story, and will do so to their last pathetic breaths. Rove is irrelevant to the real story, which is how Cooper and other lamebrains were carrying water for the vicious smear job being perpetrated BY Joe Wilson against Bush and in support of the Kerry campaign.
No problem. BTW, the Islamic Charity investigation started in August 2002.
To help search for more information, Miller's fellow Times reporter Philip Shenon is involved.
I will add that one of the latest things to happen there is the courts denied that particular grand jury's request for the New York Times' phone records saying they first have to demonstrate they have no other way to obtain the information they seek.
