Time reporter to testify in CIA leak case 01:31 PM CDT on Wednesday, July 6, 2005 Associated Press WASHINGTON — Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper agreed Wednesday to testify about his sources in a government leak of a CIA agent's identity, a dramatic about-face which came as he faced going to jail. “I am prepared to testify. I will comply” with the court's order, Cooper told U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan. Cooper's turnaround came at a hearing at which Hogan was to consider whether to jail Cooper and New York Times reporter Judith Miller for defying his order to testify about their confidential sources in the leak of CIA agent Valerie Plame's identity. Cooper took the podium in the court and told the judge, “Last night I hugged my son good-bye and told him it might be a long time before I see him again.” “I went to bed ready to accept the sanctions” for not testifying, Cooper said. But he told the judge that not long before his early afternoon appearance, 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. dallasnews.com
