Reporter ordered to jail

A federal district court judge ordered a Time magazine reporter to be jailed for failing to disclose a confidential source, as detailed in "Reporter Held in Contempt Over C.I.A. Leak" in today's New York Times. For Utah journalists, this has been a battle frequently fought during the last few years, as I chronicled in "Reporter's Privilege in Utah," which appeared in the Fall 2003 issue of the BYU Journal of Public Law.
