I thought this was as good a reason as any for the NYTs to be very careful in how they frame a story. Pure hypocricy.

"Media chants aside, there's no evidence that Karl Rove broke any laws in telling reporters that Valerie Plame may have played a role in her husband's selection for a 2002 mission to investigate reports that Iraq was seeking uranium ore in Niger. But it appears Rove didn't even know her name and had only heard about her work at Langley from other journalists. On the no underlying crime point moreover no less than the New York Times..." This is the key part of the Journal editorial. "On the no underlying crime point moreover no less than the New York Times and Washington Post now agree that there hasn't been a crime committed here, so do the 36 major news organizations that filed a legal brief in March aimed at keeping Mr. Cooper and the New York Times' Judith Miller out of jail." Now, this is something I didn't know. The Wall Street Journal editorial says that both the Washington Post and the New York Times joined in briefs, court papers, arguing that there is no underlying crime here. Now, if that's their position, if there's no underlying crime in all of this, how can they then say that Rove be said to have committed any offense as a matter of law? At least accordingly their own logic. There's no underlying crime when you're trying to protect your reporters but there is an underlying crime if you're trying to nail Rove?
