Judy Miller receives a journalism award today
The Society of Professional Journalists is giving her their First Amendment Award -- for being so brave and noble and all. Is anyone protesting this?

The event is in Las Vegas.

5. Yeah, a lot of so called journalists really think they are journalists.
So it doesn't seem so outrageous that they'd give her an award.

They're all just fooling themselves.

6. Everyone that thinks Miller is so noble.............
for making her "courageous stand" against protecting her journailsitic sources is a complete and total idiot. What they fail, or refuse to realize is that she is PART of this clusterfuck of traitors, a willing participant in this story not an innocent journalist standing strong against the big, bad Fitzgerald. It will all come out in the end, I hope, and this award will become a joke id it isn't already.
Giving Judy Miller an award for journalism is like giving Idi Amin the Nobel Peace Prize.

7. love your post
you know, clusterfuck is one of my favorite words when describing this administration.... it just suits them so well.
I am surprised that Miller isn't worried about getting picked off in the parking lot, for all the people she has pissed off....

8. I guess the whole country is like this. The more incompetent and corrupt
someone is, they more they are honored.
