"The lawyers evidently told them to take a hike."

Good. But I have a hard time believing that nobody on the editorial staff didn't know before hand that what the wanted to do is against several laws.

You have to watch the panel discussion on Brits Show. The man literally had steam coming out of his ears.

Brit did some investigations into the NTY story. One of his sources spoke with one of the lawyers who was asked by the NYT, "How do we get the adoption documents unsealed."

The lawyer was so disgusted by the inquiry that he refuses to even discuss it with them.

Brit and Samon were understandably disgusted with the NTY actions. Bermbaulm hemmed and hawed about, there might be legitimate questions to be answered.

In short the NYT explanation was not what the lawyers were asked.

that what the wanted to do is against several laws.

I get the impression that the leak came to Drudge from within the NYT.

Someone with some sense wanted to stop this out of the gate.

There truely is a God.
