A federal appeals court in Washington upheld a ruling forcing Time magazine's Matthew Cooper and The New York Times' Judith Miller to testify before a grand jury about confidential sources tied to the CIA leak. The panel said there is no First Amendment privilege protecting the information, potentially sending the reporters to jail.
