Priest in Trouble

Speaking of Howard Kurtz, his column today confirms what Mark Corallo laid out here last Tuesday -- Dana Priest could find herself in legal hot water for her reporting on the CIA's "black sites."

Typically, Kurtz, Priest & Co. try to ignore the gravamen of the matter by playing up criticism from the left for the Post's not having revealed more in its report. Evidently the paper thinks it deserves a Pulitzer for not revealing the names of the countries hosting the alleged sites -- information that became easily obtainable once Priest provided all the necessary clues.
