Judy Miller is testifying in the Libby case. They are just returning from a short recess. Here’s is Marcy Wheeler’s description of Judy as she prepares to continue testifying under cross.
Judy back. Looks like she’s doing breathing exercises, pouring herself water. Got out of chair and is now back. Gets more water. Thanks person who brings more. Looking around cautiously. Closes eyes. Breathes. Breathes out. Looking straight foward. Head darts nervously. Staring forward. Shifts in chair. Looks toward Libby’s team? Looks towawrd lawyers. Adjusts blouse. Looks at lawyers again. looks down, folds arms. Looks down. Looks toward Libby’s team. Folds arms, leans back, turning in swivel chair. Takes glasses off. Looks for tissue to wipe her hands.
This is gonna be good.
She is such a slime. She has never had to tell the truth in her life. I wonder if she can?
Tell the truth?
Not without violating her CIA oath.

Good one, dada
Good one, o-sage. Many thx for the chuckles.
What channel? I can’t find it anywhere.
it’s a federal trial, not televised. God I wish it was.
Yeah, I’d like to see Fitz in action.
Try Firedoglake.com.
Thanks much!
(Details, details…it didn’t occur to me to check out the…gasp!…diary link) 🙂
And, if you wish to see the documents as they are entered as exhibits, you can find them here.
So will Judy pay any price at all for her role in this? For helping lie us into war, for protecting Libby? Hope Fitzgerald nails her to the wall.

Judy Miller is a government witness against Libby. She’s not protecting him.
And to think the phrase ‘media whore’ used to be just an epithet. Now we have the living example. Her testimony should live forever as a case example for classes in journalism.
Speaking, however, as a professional historian, I’m waiting for a really good professional book on the evolution of political journalism since 1975 or so. It would make an academic reputation. I’m too old for this, but I encourage those with energy and ability to do it. You’ll live forever off the rents.
