Regardless of the 1st amendment questions raised there seems to be a differing degree of indignation here. On the one hand we have Starr who has requested "documents involving contacts he [Blumenthal] may have had with journalists regarding Starr's office" and all hell breaks loose. On the other hand we have Blumenthal an active agent of the President of the United States who threatens a private citizen (Drudge) with a $30 million lawsuit if he doesn't "Disclose to them the following: the names of the 'top GOP operatives'... the name of the 'influential republican who demanded anonymity'... and the name of the 'White House source' whom you purported to quote" his sources." From the press barely a peep. Why didn't the press get upset when Blumenthal sued Drudge? Anyone else notice a *slight* bias in the press?
