Judy Miller is a liar, who sided with Scooter Libby over her collegues. She should be fired outright. She lied to her editors and most importantly, she lied to the grand jury. Any reporter who says, when dealing with a notebook of quotes from one source, and says another jumped in the middle of that, is a fucking liar and everyone in the newsroom knows it. You can't take notes like that. Fitzgerald should indict her for perjury and may well do so.
Why?
Well, when taking notes, you usually try to seperate them by source, so you don't confuse words from different people. Even a couple of lines would have been used. Miller might have jotted the name down, but then, she would have isolated it. So not to confuse the two subjects. But without initials or a notation, her story is just bullshit. Her whole story would not pass muster in a reporting 101 class.
Now Atta J. Turk is no journalist. I am at best a commentor on the events of the day, veering between snark and rants.
But journalists aren't the only people who take notes. People simply don't work on anything involving notation and keep notes like this. If you did, you would never be able to assemble your notes into anything coherent.
Judy is a liar.
She tossed her hat (and her salad) into the ring with the NeoCons, and now the bill is due for her malfeasance.
Was your legacy worth it Judy? Because it is worth shit now.
