Texas pursues shield law

Here is the story. It would be the 33rd state to get one. The Frontline series on PBS called "News Wars" features Josh Wolf and  Judith Miller, one journalist who did time and another who is serving jail time protecting sources. Last night's installment  featured interesting background on the 1972 Supreme Court case that declared jouranlists had no right to refuse to testify.

The program sure sounded worthwhile when I heard Bergman interviewed by Bob Edwards. Will try to catch the second installment.
