Judith Miller wants to "fight back"
http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001014170
<snip>
NEW YORK In Friday's edition of Newsday, reporter James Madore speaks with Lucy Dalglish, director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, about her recent visit with jailed New York Times reporter Judith Miller.

"I know what's bothering her more than anything is she cannot read the Internet," Dalglish told the paper. "People are telling her about some allegations about her that are in the blogosphere and she has no way to fight back."

Dalglish, who visited Miller recently at the Alexandria (Va.) Detention Center, also told Madore, "It's tough, but she is fine. She's hanging in there."

Why don't you tell that to the soldiers in Iraq who can't fight back because of your outrageous reporting.

4. Mmmmm, that could be a little tricky
Seeing as how the amendment she is most concerned about is the Fifth, not the First, but she can't take the Fifth because then.......well, then she couldn't pretend to be a 'hero'

9. I would be willing to bet that old Fitz,
would probably give her immunity in order to catch the big fish named Bush! And, you're right, she is playing the "hero martyr" now===almost makes me wish that Fitz extends the grand jury for another 6 months--keep her in jail that much longer.

6. Gee, what a trooper she is.
Hanging tough? Fuck. She's seriously delusional if she still thinks that people are falling for that act. Shit, because of her, Cindy Sheehan is in Crawford.

"It's tough, but she is fine. She's hanging in there," Lucy A. Dalglish of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press said of Miller, whom she visited last week.

"I know what's bothering her more than anything is she cannot read the Internet. ... People are telling her about some allegations about her that are in the blogosphere and she has no way to fight back," Dalglish said, referring to blogs, or Web journals.



What the hell does that mean? I'm quite sure people can tell Miller what these allegations are and that Bill Keller would happily print anything Miller wanted to dictate to him on the front page of the New York Fucking Times. If Miller wants to set the record straight about anything she can do so by testifying to the grand jury and by printing it in the "paper of record."

I hate when people who have access to the most influential platforms in the world whine about being "attacked," and she's compounding this by claiming she has no way to "fight back."

Yeah, here are some people who are actually unable to "fight back" because you were "proved fucking right" Judy.

13. Hang in there Judy maybe we can smuggle George Will in there
Edited on Fri Aug-12-05 08:51 PM by Burried News
to help the time pass ... more slowly. Maybe you can show him some of your man taming moves - although George won't be much of a challenge?
Hmmm why does the last scene of the Devil and Ms. Jones come to mind?

Goodness gracious small balls afire.

15. Hey Judy...Just click your heels together three times
and repeat after me:

The rat was dick cheney.
The rat was dick cheney.

See, you had the power to go home all the time!

20. No. I think it's long overdue and I hope it spreads to the other
side of the aisle and eventually to a jury. More importantly I consider Judy bait and hope some of her chums show themselves more clearly. Because until we know who they are, they are likely to show up in the Democratic Party and use it for their agenda.

18. To fight back, you testify...
It's as simple as that. Few are aware of how bad Judith Miller is.....

She is an embedded participant with spies, and has a real history.

21. Why doesn't she just get it all off her chest and tell us all about it
All information I have read and heard suggests that if not a collaborator, she is at least a witness to a crime and impeding the indictment and conviction of a criminal or criminals working out of the White House. As far I know, she hasn't been muzzled or restricted in her right to free speech by the judge who is ordering her to testify, so why doesn't she just set the record straight and set all the rumors to rest if she is not a collaborator or witness to a crime.

24. Judy Judy Judy!
Now how long was it that they had Susan McDougal in jail for not talking in Federal Court? And how about the lady journalist in Texas?

Susan McDougal:

"She also spent 18 months in prison including 7 weeks in solitary confinement for civil contempt of court after refusing to cooperate with special prosecutor Kenneth Starr."

25. Unbelievable...
This woman helped BushCo launch a corrupt war based on total fabrication--with her fantasy-based reporter.

And what's she worried about? What the bloggers are saying about her.

I swear to God these neocons have NO souls. They are conscious-lacking degenerates.

Geez Judy...you're crying in your tin cup over blogger gossip--while the blood of US Soldiers and many Iraqi men, women and children--is on your hands. You sold America on this war. You marketed propaganda through your articles--and you were instrumental in convincing middle America that BushCos lies were truth. And you KNEW they were lies.

These people are completely beyond repair.

I'm sickened.
