It couldn't happen to a more deserving newswhore

Jim Guckert may be the most flamboyant presstitute in the spotlight today, but he is hardly the worst. That "honor" belongs to Judith Miller of the New York Times, who wrote all those phonus-balonus "weapons of mass destruction" stories in the run-up to the Iraq war.

She and Time's Matthew Cooper have now been held in comtempt for refusing to name their sources in testimony before a grand jury looking into the Plame affair. Neither Miller nor Cooper outed Plame as a CIA agent; Robert Novak did that chore. Yet he has escaped legal troubles -- so far.

Right now, Judy must be wondering who she has to blow to get one of Novak's "get out of jail free" cards.
