Miller = Ethics & Principles ......NOT

I still maintain that the deal that was struck between Miss Judy and Prosecutor Fitzgerald stemmed from the fact that her highness wanted a guarantee that she could cover her ass and not testify about anything where she would implicate herself. It seems at least one other blogger agrees, and goes into an extensive post that points this out MUCH better than my take on the agreement. Via The Heretik According to NBC news, Judy will testify tomorrow. I think the whole "Libby gave her a release" story is just so much bs, a fig leaf for her to hide behind, and I doubt whatever "deal" she cut at this point allows her to do much more than keep her ass out of jail. And if her testimony didn't incriminate anyone, she would have given it long ago -- any examination of her behavior to date show her to be a complete stranger to commonly held notions of "principle." [snip] Judith Miller has a rather ignominious history as a conduit of "information" the veracity of which recently has been dubious at best. The joke that this woman stood for any journalistic principals in covering "the news" in the past is only now exceeded by the hilarity of righteously covering her vulnerable butt. The truth in this matter was going to come out sooner or later. In this case it is later, because delay is always the last tactic of the losing side. Who exactly is revealed on that losing side we will now find out. As is usual with The Heretik, there are an extensive amount of links provided in the post covering many aspects of the story. Trust me, Miss Judy DID NOT go to jail out of some ethical reason as "protecting a source". First of all she never wrote any articles about the Valerie Plame case so how could there be a "source" for a story. Secondly, she would have to be a true journalist, which I maintain SHE IS NOT. If you look at her history, she is nothing but a mouthpiece for King George's administration. Proof of this can be seen by the way she pushed the WMD story and other lies put forth by the neocons as the justification of an illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq. She knows that other news sources would not ignore any column sent out under the NYT masthead or her byline. Either way, it should be very interesting to see the developments progress regarding the Plame leak. Just keep in mind when the high and mighty Judy writes her column (or book) about her jail experience or the story in general there will be two stories. Hers' and the truth. I would urge all of you to visit The Heretik and see for yourself by examining previous posts. You can read the entire post regarding the Miller story HERE....
