Say Anything says Times reporters should be subpoened and jailed if they won’t name the leakers, while Protein Wisdom sees nothing less than a media war by biased journalists against the Bush Administration and the war on terror. Don Singleton suspects The Times sat on the story for months not because of the Administration’s concerns, but because “their reporter had not finished his book.” Captain’s Quarters predicts Times editors will soon wish they had not “pushed so hard for a criminal investigation into the leak of Valerie Plame’s identity on the basis of national security violations.” Big Lizard has an extensive and blistering critique of CNN’s coverage of The Times brouhaha. Meanwhile, Tigerhawk points to Times business stories that blame bad stock market days on Bush but don’t credit market upswings to him. But Unforeseen Contingencies sees an attempt to chill the press in the move by the DOJ, and LawDog Rants sees a dramatically different reaction by Bush this time as compared to his reaction in the Plame affair.  [...]
