Did anyone see Leslie Stahl on Hardball?
She was talking about the importance of anonymous sources in covering the government. Nobody would ever go on record contradicting the administration. She said that American needs government whistleblowers so the press can keep the government clean.

2. One other important point she made was that the Watergate story kept
dying and that a few men worked to keep it alive. I think this is very important today with regards to the Downing Street Minutes. We CAN'T let this story die!

4. I caught that too and wondered
If somehow she was letting us know that it is what is needed with this Downing St memo.
To keep bringing it up and not to let it die!

How can all this journalist NOT SEE the corruption in this administration?
How can they re call all that went on with Nixon and not draw a comparison?
Maybe I'm just naive!

5. It was an interesting show.
Surprising that when she mentioned a CIA connection with the burglars, and there was a lot of McCord film, she didn't mention him specifically. She did note Sturgis.
