"After that — which represented no change from the situation that had existed for 18 months — Cooper made a dramatic public announcement and agreed to testify."

Byron goes soft on Cooper in describing his last minute public announcement, merely "dramatic". I'd call it totally self-serving and intentionally deceptive.

Get a load of Cooper's soap opera statement: "Mr. Cooper told the judge that he had been prepared to go to jail until shortly before the hearing. "Last night I hugged my son good-bye and told him it might be a long time before I see him again," Mr. Cooper said. But just before today's hearing, he had received "in somewhat dramatic fashion" a direct personal communication from his source freeing him from his commitment to keep the source's identity secret. "It's with a bit of surprise and no small amount of relief that I will comply with the subpoena," he told the judge."

What a bunch of horse pucky!

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.

Karl Rove signed a release, more than a YEAR ago, freeing Cooper to name him.

Cooper is a lying piece of detritus.
