....James Risen, Eric Lichtblau and everyone else at the Times involved in the publication of the NSA surveillance story have engaged in conduct violative of the federal espionage laws. Yet the Times has never even acknowledged its own legal jeopardy. John concludes with a point close to my heart:
    [I]t is worth mentioning that Lichtblau and Liptak 
purport to sit in judgment on the legality of the
administration's conduct, without ever noting the fact
that Lichtblau and the Times itself unquestionably
violated federal law by publishing leaks about the NSA
program. In the world of the antique media, illegality
requires no explanation if it is directed against the
Bush administration.
Every word the Times now publishes about the NSA surveillance story is deeply compromised by a conflict of interest that the Times has yet to acknowledge.
