Abstract

Judith Miller, an investigative reporter for the New York Times, received a grand jury subpoena to testify regarding the leak of the identity of an undercover CIA agent, Valerie Plame. It was believed that Miller had information regarding which it was that broke federal law by disclosing the identity of an undercover agent. Time magazine reporter Matt Cooper was also subpoenaed. Miller and Cooper declined to reveal their sources, arguing that their confidentiality agreement with sources must be upheld and was protected by the First Amendment and reporter's privilege. Miller and Cooper were sentenced to four months in jail for contempt of court.
