"We are grateful to Judy for her significant personal sacrifice to defend an important journalistic principle," said Times publisher Arthur Sulzberger Jr. said in a statement. "I respect her decision to retire from The Times and wish her well."
I'd recommend looking at the Editor and Publisher coverage of this as it moves forward. It's been quite entertaining.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
I see a bright career ahead of a her a mouth on Fox News...
Huh.
I've been sympathetic to her, but the more I read the more suspect it all seems. Just read a longish article in the New Yorker that has me thinking that retiring is the right thing to do.
She's been on my schit list ever since the crap she put out in the run up to the invasion of Iraq. Even then she put the Times in a rough spot having to apologize for her "reporting".
I can see that her byline in NYT would be seen as claw amuck, whatever the purported or real news in a piece.
Well, that New Yorker article cleared a lot up, thanks Soz. I have kind of taken in bits and pieces re what Miller is like.
I still think she did a damn fine thing in going to prison.
I know journalism is a very mixed bag, but I do think that protecting sources is a serious thing.....
Inadvertantly, I came across what could be a very interesting link between Judith Miller and David Kelly, the poor sod of a Brit scientist who committed suicide over the "sexed up" dossier......
