Judith Miller claims she would only have testified if 2 conditions met.

1) The personal release from her source to speak

2) A narrow testimony


Narrow testimony...

I wonder what exactly it was that she didn't want to be asked about, or for that matter, what she did testify about.

Here is what she said after her testimony outside the courthouse in a short Q&A with some reporters:

Believe me, I did not want to be in jail. But I would have stayed even longer if I had not achieved these two things: the personal waiver and the narrow testify - and the narrow testimony. I could not have testified without both of them. I said to the court before I was jailed that I did not believe I was above the law and that I would therefore have to go to jail because of my principles. But once I satisfied those principles, I was prepared to testify.
