What if she let it all slip and in the giant game of telephone around the nation\u2019s capital, Miller was the original source of the \u201cPlame\u2019s in the CIA\u201d info? What if Fitzgerald needs her notes to discern whether Miller knew or didn\u2019t know of Plame\u2019s supposedly covert status?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Fitzgerald already has a major bone to pick with Miller. He believes she materially and dangerously impeded his investigation into a terrorist-financing scheme run by the Holy Land Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>When Miller found out that Fitzgerald was on the verge of indicting Holy Land, she called the Foundation for comment \u2014 and right after her call Fitzgerald believes the Foundation may have commenced a shredding party that ensured prosecutors would find little paperwork to go on when they raided the Holy Land offices.<\/p>\n<p>As the Washington Post put it, \u201cOn Dec. 3, 2001, Times reporter Judith Miller telephoned officials with the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, a Texas-based charity accused of being a front for Palestinian terrorists, and asked for a comment about what she said was the government\u2019s probable crackdown on the group. U.S. officials said this conversation and Miller\u2019s article on the subject in the Times on Dec. 4 increased the likelihood that the foundation destroyed or hid records before a hastily organized raid by agents that day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Let me just say that I had for a very long time admired Judith Miller.   But reading this is troubling.  That a reporter would interfere with an investigation concerning the funding of terrorists is very troubling, indeed.<\/p>\n<p>But then, the press is in trouble in a lot of ways, right now.
