Now, Blair is tried and convicted. Depending on the amount of money involved, and what exactly the Son of Sam law states, Blair would be prohibitied already from selling his story. If OTHERS want to tell his story and profit, they can. But, not Blair. I think that is fair.

Yeah, if they can nail him on something like that, I wouldn't have any problem with it.

Re your post #83 - But there are types of "journalistic fraud" that I think also fall into the category of "criminal fraud." I can't recall exactly what Blair wrote about the sniper case, but if Blair's reporting causes harm or damages to the prosecutor's case against the defendant, and let's say willfull, false reporting by Blair somehow allows the sniper suspect to go free, then, we are in a whole other category of fraud, way beyond whatever we may have previously defined as "jounalistic" fraud.
