jhild,,I don't get you ,, Why would Starr subpoena these people except to get at the truth or to ferret out someone in his own tribe who may be the leak? Either way it would seem he is seeking the truth. I thought that was his job.
<<Lewinsky was initially pressured >>,,,
by whom?

<<<Starr has subpoenaed those that he believes have floated stories, apparently true
stories, about his people overstepping the rights of defendants. >>>

If he feels guilty of this accusation , then it does not compute that he would subpoena them, at least not to me.

<<The floating of these stories somehow constitutes obstruction of justice. I am
apparently fielding criticism because there are those here that agree that it is
obstruction of justice. I find that position fascinating.>>>

Certainly in my mind as a juror, as we all are, to some extent, it is an obstruction of justice. It appears to be a deliberate attempt to discredit the prosecutor as incompetent and untrustworthy.
